Versatile American jazzman Gregory Porter has played a concert in one of Moscow’s jazz clubs. Porter, who names Nat King Cole his biggest influence, made his mark on the jazz scene fusing jazz, blues, R&B and gospel.
Gregory Porter wrote his first jazz song when he was only five. Since then jazz has become his life.
“A couple of years ago I broke up with a woman I loved and I didn’t understand the songs I was singing until that happened,” Porter recalls.
Porter is a smooth operator and says jazz helps him better understand women.
“Yes, a beautiful woman is easy to write about but then there's a woman who feels bad about herself, but I like that woman too as she has a story too,” Porter says.
It seems that Gregory Porter knows one thousand and one love songs and plays them by ear.
