Miles Jaye at his R&B best. Featuring a powerful duet with songstress Alyson Williams titled "I'll Never Go". "The Odyssey" takes us on a musical journey to fulfillment.. a soulfully, romantic, lyrically stimulating journey.
Editorial review
Miles Jaye had late-'80s R&B hits on Island with "Let's Start Love Over," "I've Been a Fool for You," "Objective," and "Heaven." On Odyssey, the Brooklyn-born singer stays in the same vein that is akin to Teddy Pendergrass and Will Downing. Though Jaye plays most of the music, it's when he's joined on tracks by such top talent as Bobby Wooten and others that prove to be the album's cornerstones. Of particular note is "Man on a Corner," which conjures up a forlorn Southern soul vibe somewhat similar to Brook Benton's "Rainy Night in Georgia." Other highlights are "Step by Step," "Marry Me," and his cover of the Skylark/New Birth standard "Wildflower." ~ Ed Hogan, All Music Guide
Bio / Background
“The Odyssey” is Miles Jaye at his R& B best. It is a creative tour de force of soulful romance featuring Miles’ inimitable voice, insightful lyrics and melodic arrangements. The first title features a sexy parley between lovers titled “I’ll Never Go” performed with songstress Alyson Williams known for her hit single “Just Call My Name”. “Can I Come Over”; “Love Story” and “Marry Me” are beautiful romantic ballads. While “Man On A Corner” lends itself to a bluesy country music arrangement evoking hopelessness and urgency; “Free Me” delivers a yearning anthem of release giving the listener an outstanding acoustic performance accompanied by guitar. Miles also gives us a treat revisiting the hit single, “Wildflower” and adds a little “doo-wop” with his performance on “Step by Step”. This CD is creative, innovative and absolutely enjoyable.

Miles Jaye was discovered by Teddy Pendergrass and is known for his hit CDs, MILES, IRRESISTIBLE and STRONG. Like his namesake, Miles Davis, he is one of music’s most gifted, distinctive and dynamic artists. Miles was also the lead singing “Cop” for the world-renowned disco group the Village People.
As a writer, Miles has penned and recorded more than 40 original compositions and has the distinction of recording 12 different instruments on several of his critically acclaimed CDs. He enjoys a reputation as an R&B and Contemporary Jazz writer and performer, partnering with some very notable jazz giants on his musical recordings—Grover Washington, Jr., Roy Ayers, George Duke, Branford Marsalis, Dexter Wansel and Nat Adderley, Jr.
Miles established an independent label, Black Tree Records, and has released 4 CDs under that label. Look for his new CDs coming this Fall -- Smooth Jazz and R & B … nothing but the best!
