Randy and Joe - No Regrets

After more than 30 years of superlative collaborations in the studio and on the stage, contemporary jazz masters Randy Crawford and Joe Sample have been recognized for a musical simpatico rarely seen in modern music. No Regrets, the duo’s latest effort, has received a Grammy® nomination for Best Jazz Vocal Album.

The collection is the follow-up to 2007’s critically acclaimed Grammy® nominated Feeling Good, which peaked at No. 3 on Billboard’s Contemporary Jazz Chart and spurred a successful tour around the world. With Sample’s stylish, uncluttered arrangements and Crawford’s bell-clear, soul-drenched vocals, fans couldn’t get enough and demanded more.

Crawford and Sample are supreme musical storytellers, and that’s even more apparent on No Regrets. Just as they did on Feeling Good, the two handpicked the material with legendary producer Tommy LiPuma, whom Sample and Crawford know very well. They have worked with LiPuma individually and collectively for more than 30 years.
