I like really smooth jazz - the kind that you can listen to while cruising down the boulevard in a convertible on a cool night and only 2 tracks fit the bill: Noodle Soup and to a lesser extent, En Route. The rest is either too abstract or funky...

This cd does not say anything new. It(he) is like all the previous ones, with the escepcion of the 1 �, the best cd of the group with difference. This cd alternates good songs with really sluggish(weak) others. It is the problem of this group. In...

I have been following the group for some time and when I found this compilation immediately went to buy it. All the great piesces are there (for a 1 CD compilation that is) and the icing on the cake is the last track , ?Long way from Brooklin?. I...

Without any prejudice whatsoever, the original group who made the CD "From Manhattan to Staten" was a far better group in terms of a better rendition, because they were more natural with the African illulations and the drum beats along with...

When I first heard "From Manhattan to Staten" I thought that Down to the Bone had a lot of potential but after listening to this "Best Of" CD it's obvious that their potential is limited.

Yes they have a few infectious hooks and the...

O'2L (O-Tool) is the dynamic duo collaborating team of two of New York's finest... Keyboardist and sound designer Jane Mangini and guitarist Al Pitrelli. The duo's sophomore release, DOYLE'S BRUNCH on Peak Records, is filled with scintillating...

With reckless, raw energy and rhythm hurling towards you at the speed of a slide trombone in the Tower of Power horn section, SUPERCHARGED is Smooth Jazz with a nitrous injection. This is DTTB's 7th release to date and by far the most...

I thought this CD was the worst. I felt I was at a concert that Down to the Bone wasn't even conscious of. Each piece sounded alike. If it wouldn't cost me to return it, I'd do so gladly.

I played it in my car with 3 friends as we...

I own all of Down to the Bone albums and this one is my least favorite.

Maysa is back and this is her best one yet. I own all of her previous recordings and love them all. It's sad to say, but I accidently found out about this recording. Where was/is the promotion? Maysa is definitely an underrated artist. I love...

Maysa has been one of those artist who has been constantly looked over when you go to the store and look in the music racks. Yes, she's the artist who you'd typically say "I've never heard of her" and yet you probably have heard her. She was...

My taste in jazz harkens back to to the Miles Davis brand of 'cool' with Sketches of Spain as a marker. I haven't heard anything since then that really got my attention. This CD has me standing up and saluting. Thanks to public radio for the...

Sorry to disappoint you Scofield fans, but this album gives me a good reason not to start buying his albums. The music is in the era of very early Jimi Hendrix recordings, except of course Hendrix could express himself a hundred times better than...

Scofield and MM&W turn in a fun, refined, and funky performance which is guarante ed to get you tapping your feet. However, hardcore jazz guitar aficionados may wish to che ck out some of Sco's earlier disks for some more substantial axework....

Hand this one to your music-lover friends(especially the hipster set) who need a gentle but rigorous introduction to modern Jazz(minus the Fusion). If they truly love music and this does not move them, then they are beyond redemption. :-) I have...

This band will blow-up bigger than ever after this release. Galactic is one of many unique & talented bands coming out of the New Orleans music scene right now. If you like extra tight booty-shakin music, grab you a Schlitz, light up and prepair...

I should start by saying that I love Galactic and have seen them many times from New Orleans to Connecticut and points between. Coolin' Off, their first CD, is still their best. In both their live shows and CDs, the more Theryl sings, the less...

Awsome. This album is very clean. It is a good, soulful representation of Ray Charles with its own flavorful taste. There is a righteously proper balance between the traditional Ray Charles feel and Scofield's modern touch. John Scofield never...

I have always loved John's more straight-ahead jazz style and sounds. Ala EnRoute, Quiet, Pick Hits Live, ScLoHoFo, etc. John has a flair for going over-the-top in some of his records. Maybe a little too much distortion on the guitar, maybe a...

Scofield has taken a little brake from his groove tunes that has helped him bring in a whole new audience, the "Jamband" audience. The songs on Works for Me are more straight ahead jazz. So...If you are a fan of Bump or A-GO-Go, you might not...

i suppose for true jazz fans this recording is pure bliss, it does not however "work for me". now-if you want some jamming-try "bump" from the same artist.
