Baby can u dig your man? by JEFF VIDOV: Review

Jeff Vidov’s “Baby can u dig your man” has been circulating the radio for its vibrant and uplifting experience rooted in rock. As a Canadian-born composer, pianist, recording engineer, producer, and arranger, Vidov showcases his multifaceted musical talents through this compelling and dynamic track and readies us for a spectacular year.

Before we dive into the review, let’s look at the mesmerizing cover art that captures the various shades of a flower. Perhaps it’s asking us to read between the lines to see beneath the face value. Meanwhile, the title draws inspiration from Stephen King’s novel “The Stand” because it connects the theme of a destructive virus.

With the cover art and the title already piquing our interest, Vidov takes us to the depths of his latest radio-hit, “Baby can u dig your man.” Recorded in his studio, the song exudes energy, excitement, and a contagious rhythm that prompts spontaneous dancing and head nodding. Vidov is known for his upbeat music and this track definitely fits the bill! Dave Thompson’s vocal performance injects the track with vitality, seamlessly complementing Vidov’s grinding guitars, bass, keyboards and orchestra, and Sean Brock’s thumping drums. With Vidov’s rich classical music background and having roamed with big names, he has merged orchestra with the band to create a multi-dimensional rock experience.

Delving into the lyrics reveals double meanings, especially in lines like “Right now! Humanity is calling.” The thoughtful lyrics have already caught the keen eyes of many listeners who reflect.

The award-winning composer’s genius lies in often embedding layers of meaning and making his lyricism, witty and intelligent(with bonus poetic allusions!).

Beyond his prowess in pop/rock, Vidov’s extensive musical career spans various genres and roles, including choir conductor, accompanist, session musician, and film-TV composer.

Vidov is bringing even more surprises in 2024 & 2025! He is also going to release a long-awaited pop-rock album this year. Other than that, his upcoming releases include a solo jazz piano album, a church organ album, and much more.
