Gerald Levert sang slow jams like he had all night and meant every minute. Now Playing, part of Rhino's Now Playing series, packs ten of his best onto a single LP.
Fans called him the Teddy Bear, a nickname earned by that big, comforting baritone. The son of O'Jays leader Eddie Levert, Gerald first broke through with LeVert, the trio he formed with his brother Sean and Marc Gordon, before stepping out on his own and becoming one of the most dependable romantic voices in R&B.
The set opens with LeVert's "Casanova," still a sly, finger-snapping charmer, then lets father and son trade lines on "Baby Hold On To Me," a duet that turns family ties into pure velvet. Later, "My Body" brings in LSG, his trio with Keith Sweat and Johnny Gill, for something steamier.
The closing "In My Songs," title track of his final album, carries extra weight after his death in 2006. Across the record the arrangements stay plush and unhurried, all soft keys and patient grooves, with that voice up front where it belongs.
For anyone who files their records under late-night listening, this is Gerald at his most generous: ten slow burners that still feel like a promise kept.
