Hit: 4 Stars
Chris Botti is a talented trumpeter who has recorded with some of the most celebrated stars in pop music history, such as Bob Dylan, Aretha Franklin, Paul Simon, and most recently, Sting. This album contains some of the best tracks off his first three solo albums which display his light and melancholy smooth jazz sound. But Botti's sound is deeper than most contemporary, popular smooth jazz - his sound has a substance that takes it beyond Muzak, and will be admired by fans of classic jazz artists, such as Miles Davis and Chet Baker. The selections contained on this disc are fairly representative of Botti's first three albums, with the 1997's Midnight Without You having five of its ten songs reproduced here, and three songs each from his 1995 record, First Wish, and 1999's Slowing Down the World. It does not contain any rarities or otherwise previously unreleased tracks.
Also, Sting fans should note that "In the Wee Small Hours" containing Sting's vocals is not included on this disc. If you're an interested Sting fan, you should get 1999's Slowing Down the World.
Each of Botti's individual discs, including his later work (Night Sessions), are worth hearing. But for a budget-minded music fan, this may be all you truly need. At this price, it gives you plenty of Botti for your Buck.

This early CD by Chris Botti is not one of my favorite Botti CDs and does not compare to the later and more recent Botti CDs. It's is just the selctions and the musical accompanyments. I found the title of this CD to be misleading since the other Botti CDs I have purchased on Amazon are much better products.Free Music Review: The Very Best of Chris Botti
