Javier - Left of Center (Capitol)

Email this article Print this article Send us a tip

And at times, his accomplished but chameleon- like musicianship disturbs the overall direction. The pale Spanish rhythms of “Is This Love” and the half-hearted funk attempt of “You’re the One” stretch the effort beyond its focus. But when Javier settles down and concentrates on traditional R&B, the album thrives. As both a guitarist and a singer, his ambidextrous artistry comes alive, as on the passionate “Lovin’ You” and the airy groove of “Ways I’m Feeling U.” These moments dominate Left of Center and help Javier bring it back home.
