"I Wanna Be With You" features the singing and writing of Gabrielle Goodman reaching back to the soulful sounds of early Aretha Franklin and James Brown. Originally written for her book "Vocal Improvisation" ( now selling at the Store on www,gabriellegoodmansings.com) Goodman thought the song was so strong that it should be made available for purchase as a digital single. Goodman is known for transcending styles, moving seamlessly from jazz to R&B to gospel. Here she gets back to her R&B roots paying tribute to Ms. Aretha Franklin. Goodman's early jazz CDs on the Verve label are "Travelin Light" and "Until We Love" feature her with Kevin Eubanks, Christian Mcbride, Mulgrew Miller, Tony Bunn, David Bunn, Terri Lyne Carrington, Gary Bartz, Gary Thomas and other jazz giants performing classic standards like "Someone To Watch Over Me", "Travelin' Light ", "Somewhere Over The Rainbow" and originals like "Until We Love" and "Manila". While her third CD "Angle Eyes" takes you on a smooth jazz and soul journey with saxophonists, Walter Beasley, Andre Ward and vocalist, Armsted Christian. On "I Wanna be With You" Goodman goes deeper into the soul realm hitting you hard with her powerful R&B chops.
