Just finished listening to Jesse Harris's debut Verve CD 'The Secret Sun' and was very impressed. As you may, or may not, know Jesse wrote several of the songs on Nora Jones's Grammy winning debut, including 'Don't Know Why', for which Jesse won a songwriter Grammy for song of the year. 'The Secret Sun' is primary a rootsy-pop collection of very natural sounding well crafted songs. Surprisingly, Jesse is backed by a very talented group of musicians with strong Jazz backgrounds. The slide guitar work of Tony Scherr on some tracks is especially notable. Overall 'The Secret Sun' is just an enjoyable, old-fashioned, rootsy experience that for me is a keeper. :thmbsp:
