Saxophonist Mindi Abair has reached that critical juncture. After more than a decade of performing, songwriting and recording, she has taken a step back from the more polished sensibilities of contemporary jazz and embraced the sounds of past decades -- specifically the '60s and early '70s, a period widely regarded as the golden age of R&B, soul and funk.

"It has a really vintage sound to it -- a mix of old Motown and maybe some classic Ramsey Lewis, like 'The In Crowd,'" she says. "You get into the song a little bit and it just turns into this big party. All of a sudden you want to jump up and down and put your hands in the air." Any artist who takes his or her craft seriously will inevitably reach a point on the journey when history can no longer be overlooked.
