Magic Man finds Herb Alpert on CD in 1981, smoothing out the edges of jazz-funk and pop into something sleek, polished and quietly irresistible.
Coming off a run of albums that had put him back on the charts, Alpert was in a playful mood. Rather than chase the past, he kept refining the warm, contemporary sound he had been building, trading the old Tijuana Brass bustle for supple grooves, gleaming keyboards and that clear, unhurried trumpet tone that could make even a simple melody feel like an event.
The title track Magic Man sets the mood with a light, bouncing rhythm and a hook that sneaks up on you. Manhattan Melody conjures a city at dusk, all glowing lights and easy motion, while Besame Mucho reimagines the Latin standard with a modern sheen and plenty of affection for the original. Fantasy Island leans into breezy escapism, as sunny as its title suggests.
Throughout, the arrangements are given plenty of room to breathe. Nothing is rushed, and Alpert's playing stays lyrical and conversational rather than showy.
It is the sound of an artist entirely comfortable in his own skin, making music for long drives and slow Sunday mornings, and a rewarding pick for anyone exploring his later work.
