Kurt Elling has been called the definitive male jazz singer of the modern era. His abundant technique, including an elastic, four octave range, ample sustain and vibrato, and blurry-fast scatting, is matched by his magnetic relationship with the music and his audience. Elling makes a special impression when he reinterprets pop music classics, including Eddie Money’s "Baby Hold On" in this video. Backed by guitarist Charlie Hunter’s soul band, Elling keeps the funk going non-stop in this four-song set, generating impressive energy for someone born November 2, 1967.
