Editorial Reviews

From the Artist

"You Don’t Know What Love Is" also marks the first collaboration of one the world’s great Jazz families. Marlon is joined here by patriarch Kidd Jordan, saxophonist and Southern University Jazz Director; sister Stephanie, winner of the "Billie Holliday Competition" for Jazz vocals; sister Rachel, violinist with the Louisiana Philharmonic Orchestra; and three-album Columbia recording artist and internationally touted flautist, brother Kent Jordan.

About the Artist

Marlon Jordan was only 17 when he became the youngest New Orleans band leader to ever sign with a major label, joining Wynton, Branford and Delfeayo Marsalis, Terence Blanchard, Donald Harrison, Kent Jordan, and, yes, Harry Connick Jr. (his senior) on the powerhouse Dr. George Butler Columbia Jazz roster. Jordan’s first Columbia venture was opening for Miles Davis in Japan. Later he starred in George Wein’s brilliantly-conceived supergroup of "Young Lions," which included Roy Hargrove and Mark Whitfield, touring virtually every major Jazz festival and outdoor shed in the U.S.

5.0 out of 5 stars Simply the Best!, July 18, 2005

This the best Jazz CD I have heard in years. I can not stop playing "You Don't Know What Love Is." What a family combination.

Stephanie has a voice that is unlike any in the music business and Marlon's trumpet sounds like vocals.

I can not wait for the next CD.

I absolutely love this CD, I went to the live performance in New Orleans at Sweet Lorraine's and they were awesome. You are immediately transformed into the Jordans' world as the soul of the music takes you, as you savor every note....Yall have me hanging on the last note for the next CD.
