2015 studio album by Houston Person
Something Personal is an album by saxophonist Houston Person which was recorded in 2015 and released on the HighNote label.[ 1]
Reception
In JazzTimes , Owen Cordle wrote: "Something Personal is a typical offering from veteran tenor saxophonist Houston Person: warm ballads, an R&B cooker, a couple of standards with a bossa-nova beat and a couple of soulful swingers. ... All around, this is another good one from the ever-dependable Person".[ 2]
