Free Music Notes for WinelightFree Music Review: Truly Classic Smooth Jazz Hit: 5 Stars
There are certain pieces of work that must be included in any decent music collection no matter what your taste in music. We usually refer to these as "classics". "Winelight" is one of those. A delight from beginning to end! More than just fine musical workmanship and technique, Mr. Washington captures the soul and essence of each melody. I first owned this album on vinyl, then moved to tape, and finally CD. Put this album on when you are feeling mellow and want to find a content mood.
Free Music Review: Rest in peace, Grover Hit: 5 Stars
This is one of the first record albums I ever bought, and mostly because I liked the cover. "Just the Two of Us" was the big hit, but I loved the other melodies that wound themselves into my brain. I then bought other Grover albums--"Skylarkin," "The Best Is Yet to Come"--but none was as good as this one. And even though my jazz tastes quickly changed to bebop and swing, I still enjoy this album. Grover left us too soon, but his music lives on.
Free Music Review: THE "new-age" sax man Hit: 5 Stars
I've always said Grover Washington Jr could teach Kenny G how to play sax. He's smooth and mellow; never pushing his instrument but making his presence known, you know what I mean? This is an easy pop-jazz album; not ordinarily my favorite kind of jazz, but an absolute standard nonetheless. You'll hear Bill Withers (remember him?) singing on the only track with words, "Just the Two of Us". Good background music for that romantic dinner, even after 25 years.
Free Music Review: Exudes Hypnotic Brilliance Hit: 5 Stars
It would be criminal to say a word wrong about this cd or to give it anything less than five stars. This is seriously good stuff and one, in my opinion, for the history books. This album is born of Heaven where now, very regretably, Grover resides. The music exudes sheer brilliance and its totally hypnotic, you want to listen to it time and time again. If your passionate about Grover Washington this is the one cd you HAVE to own!
Free Music Review: Winelight CD Hit: 5 Stars
After looking all over town in local retails for this particular CD I came to Amazon and found it. The CD arrived in a timely fashion, and it has been listened to often.
The CD was a gift to my husband who loves light jazz. He and I have been listening to it frequently, it's a great CD with a good mix of instrumental and vocals. I would recommend it if you are a fan of jazz.
