Ray Obiedo: Sweet Summer Days (1997) Ray Obiedo: Sweet Summer Days (1997) While all six of Ray Obiedo's CD's are quite good, I'd have to say this one was the "sweetest". If I had to rank them, I would place Sweet Summer Days a very close second to his debut release: …
Mike Stern: Between The Lines (1996) Mike Stern: Between The Lines (1996) Let's establish one thing from the start: Mike Stern is one of the greatest jazz guitarists of our time. He is unique stylistically, musically, and technically. By the time this CD was released,…

Rodney Lee: The Satellite Orchestra (2006) Rodney Lee: The Satellite Orchestra (2006) You could say this is the review I've been waiting over 20 years to write; I've known Rodney Lee since the day we walked into our first Jazz Ensemble rehearsal at the University of Texas in Austin,…
Fourplay: X (2006) Fourplay: X (2006) Fourplay X may be their strongest release in over 10 years, and is a welcome relief after their previous weak outing (Journey). It's nice to see this jazz super-group still going strong at ten CD's,…
Corinne Bailey Rae (2006) CD Review Corinne Bailey Rae (2006) CD Review As the first few notes float out of your speakers, you know you have found something special in Corinne Bailey Rae. This record will wash over you and take you to a better place, guaranteed. Could…
