Description
The fourth album by the pianist, composer and producer Meeco, the alias of Michael Maier 'Souvenirs of Love' moves effortlessly between jazz improvisations, elegant modern soul, hip hop and pop. Featuring an eclectic mix of star guest, including John Scofield, Wallace Roney, Lionel Loueke, Talib Kweli, Hubert Laws, Yahzarah and others.
The list of the musicians participating in 'Souvenirs of Love' reads like an overlapping list of who-is-who in jazz and soul, with legends meeting young stars and hopeful prospects. These include the bassist Buster Williams, Richard Bona and the young Dezron Douglas from the Cyrus Chestnut Trio, drummers Victor Lewis and Marcus Baylor, member of the Yellowjackets for many years, trumpet players Eddie Henderson and Wallace Roney, saxophonists Vincent Herring, Kirk Whalum and Grammy winner Casey Benjamin, guitarists John Scofield and Lionel Loueke, vibraphonist Stefon Harris, flutist Hubert Laws and pianist/organist Shedrick Mitchell.

Also featured is the soul singer Yahzarah, backing singer for Erykah Badu for many years and a distinguished soloist, as well as Jean Baylor equally at home in soul and jazz (singer in the band ZhanÃ©), plus the talented newcomer Aaron Marcellus. Conscious-rapper Talib Kweli can be heard on the piece "Times Have Changed", as well as DJ Stylewarz, one of the most well known and influential hip hop DJs in Germany.
