Synopsis
Album Description There is a well-known and anticipated moment during every Brian Culbertson concert when the keyboardist discreetly asks the members of his band to turn their backs to the crowd. The leader then bows his head at the electric piano and plays a seductive theme. He offers the audience this intimate moment to kindle romance, hoping to send them home in a state of blissful anticipation with the thought, "Baby, it's on tonight." Culbertson has turned that fleeting concert highlight into a 12-song seduction suite that marks his eighth album and GRP Records debut, It's On Tonight. Dripping in sensuality, the album consists of all-original material, including three vocal pieces: the flirtatious title track (f/ Will Downing), the spirited "Love Will Never Let You Down" (f/ Patti Austin) and the bold "Wear it Out" (f/ Marc Nelson, lyricist of three numbers on the CD and a member of Babyface's protigi vocal group, Az Yet). Culbertson also hand-picked three of smooth jazz's most sensitive horn players to lend their singular auras to the vibe at hand: saxophonists Boney James and Kirk Whalum, and trumpeter Chris Botti. As always, Culbertson produced the album, collaborating on seven of the songs with his frequent creative partner Stephen Lu. Similar CDsSimilarly Requested CDs

CD ReviewsWonderfully Romantic S. Howard | Orange,N.J | 03/13/2006 (5 out of 5 stars) "'It's On Tonight' is the third Brian Culbertson album I've bought. And it's also the one I like the most and play the most. The album is quiet at times,upbeat at times,sensual at times and romatic all the time. It's a perfect album for quiet intimate evenings with someone you love. While you drink a bottle of champagne or wine in a cozy environment. Like in front of a fireplace or having a romantic dinner for two. With songs like the upbeat 'Let's Get Started' to the sleepy laid back 'Dreaming Of You' on to the flirtatious 'Wear It Out' and on to the softness of 'Touch Me'. Brian Culbertson is certainty doing his share to bring the sexes together. Along with Mr. Culbertson on this album are guess stars Will Downing,Boney James,Chris Botti,Patti Austin and Kirk Whalum. All giving Brian Culbertson a hand in puting these sweet sounds together. I think this may be Brian Culbertson best work todate. This is one beautiful album. And a must have for the romantic in you. With this album in hand,Who needs Cupid?" The title speaks for itself!!!!!!!!! Just as Brian mentioned Big Ro | Dallas, Tx | 10/24/2005 (5 out of 5 stars) "This Cd to me is by far the BEST by Brian yet. I LOVE his music and I have all of his albums; and "It's On Tonight" is just as we say in the south, "IS OFF THE CHAIN!!!!" With 5 stars being the highest, its still not enough to rate; needs to be 10! If you like slow jazz, then Brain Culbertson's "It's on tonight" is a MUST HAVE!!!!!! Light some candles, get with your mate, with a nice glass of fine Cognac; play this CD, and it is sure to be a romantic evening!" So Smooth!!!!!
