New single from soul-jazz vocalist Victor Fields seduces radio

LOS ANGELES (Top40 Charts/ By Rick Scott/ Great Scott Productions) - As the cold wintry nights continue and Valentine?s Day approaches, a steamy new single from soul-jazz crooner Victor Fields arrives. ?Thinking Of You,? the title track of his fourth album, was recently serviced to smooth jazz radio stations and is already garnering airplay. The sensual ballad was co-written by Jeff Lorber, produced by Chris Camozzi, and arranged by Nelson Braxton. While Fields is known for recording fresh versions of previously recorded material, ?Thinking Of You? is an original. Fields was drawn to the song because of its versatility as a smooth jazz track with a distinctly urban groove.

The first single from Thinking Of You, a celebratory version of Bill Withers? ?Lovely Day,? is now inducing smiles and airplay at Urban Adult Contemporary radio. Fields performed the track for an enthusiastic crowd at a Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Day event sponsored by Los Angeles Urban AC radio station KJLH-FM. He?s scheduled to perform at ?Champagne Thursday,? a fan appreciation event sponsored by Detroit?s WGPR-FM on Thursday (February 8th). ?Lovely Day? debuted at No 6 on the Urban AC radio station?s playlist. This Friday (February 9th), Fields will be in Washington, DC at Kemp Mill for an in-store performance and CD signing event. On Valentine?s Day, he will perform at The Flamingo Hilton Hotel in Las Vegas sharing the bill with Regina Belle, Atlantic Starr, Jesse Powell and Glen Jones.

Fields? independent record label, Regina Records, recently signed an exclusive three-year licensing pact for Japan for Thinking Of You and the 2005 album release, Victor, with PVine Records/Blues Interactions Inc., who plan to support the records vigorously.

Released here last October, Thinking Of You is Fields? first collection specifically targeting the smooth jazz audience. In addition to Lorber, Braxton and Camozzi, other guests on the album are smooth jazz stars Rick Braun and Richard Elliot. The album is up-tempo and organic comprised of elegant vocals over funky tracks. Attempting to make each song a musical event, Fields carefully selects interesting and challenging songs that he can make his own by infusing his personality and energy. His phrasing, color and tone are distinctly jazzy and soulful. In this era of disposable popular music and ?flavor of the month? idols, Fields is a refreshing song stylist who truly studies his craft, sings songs of significance and substance, and strives to create a meaningful body of work that will stand the test of time.
