The luscious bold sound of Eddie Manion’s tenor and baritone sax playing has illuminated the work of blues, jazz, and rock artists like Bruce Springsteen, Willy DeVille, Robert Cray, and Southside Johnny (to name a few) for decades. Manion’s first instrumental solo record features songs that he’s loved over his many years as a masterful player. His take on Gene Pitney’s gorgeously mournful “Town Without Pity”; R&B classics such as “It’s Gonna Take A Miracle” and “A Change is Gonna Come”; Jimmy Forrest’s “Bolo Blues”; Jazz standards “Smoke Gets in Your Eyes” “Tenderly” and “Stardust”. Springsteen deep cut “City at Night” paired brilliantly with King Curtis’ “Soul Serenade”; Roy Orbison’s “The Only One”; Luiz Bonfá's "Manhã de Carnaval" and the bluesy title cut "Nightlife" by Willie Nelson make for a sweet, soulful, and romantic mix. Downright perfect for romantic, cuddly evenings in front of the fireplace with your loved one.
