[.ca] Night Talk

From Amazon.com:
Polite, agreeable, undistinguished. It's a description that could be attached to any number of smooth-jazz recordings, and it certainly applies to Night Talk from the German foursome Blue Knights, a group whose best-known member is composer-keyboarist-producer Curtis McLaw, one-half of the duo Dancing Fantasy. Pleasant to the point of innocuousness, this 59-minute package offers modest production values and minimal virtuosity, but its mid- and uptempo melodies offer just enough attractiveness that it may find its way onto smooth-jazz playlists. The brightest candidates for such recognition are "Funky Bill," peppered with Al Jarreau-like vocalizing and finger-snapping grooves, and "Vegaz Dance," a mild-mannered toe-tapper for flute and piano. The one track that offers something other than a formula smooth-jazz structure is an appealing, slow-go piano solo ("The Moon") that McLaw inserts as the disc's penultimate track. Otherwise, Night Talk is largely inoffensive, easily accessible background music for your next patio party. --Terry Wood

ascoltate l'armonia della musica...:
quest'album da l'idea di quello che la musica strumentale può esprimere,con semplici giri di note e dolci ballate gli stumenti ti accompagnano in una atmosfera dove la fantasia ti porta a giro per il mondo che sia al mare in momtagna o in compagnia della tua dolce metà....che musica!

Why Has It Taken This Long?:
To kill some time today I decided to read some customer reviews on CDs that I had owned. I was very surprised to see that only 1 person had reviewed this CD and that was only recently. As good as this CD is I had expected to see more. All the songs are piano accompanied with guitar, sax and flute and are all very smooth and relaxing. My favorites are "Next Sunset", "Saturday Morning", and "Smooth Night". This is a great CD to listen to while driving or cleaning the house.
