Yours Truly is the twelfth studio album from jazz trumpeter Rick Braun. It was released in 2005 on ARTizen Music, the label he co-founded with Richard Elliot (with whom Braun would also collaborate the following year).
The nine-track disc contains no original material. Instead, Braun has chosen to cover hit pop songs by bands as diverse as Sade, Simply Red and Earth, Wind & Fire. He also covers songs by John Mayer, Lisa Stansfield and Lou Reed.
Allmusic's Paula Edelstein gave the release a rating of four stars (of a possible five), stating, "this is classic Rick Braun in a mellow, melodic mood, transporting listeners with the rich tones of his muted trumpet voice through the musical landscape of his life." [1]
