VA - This Is Smooth Jazz, The Box Set [2001] (3 x CD's)



SMOOTH JAZZ


VA - This Is Smooth Jazz, The Box Set [2001] (3 x CD's)

This CD set displays great work from some of acid jazz's top performers, who have taken a little edge off on some of these tunes to make it more smooth jazz friendly. I would highly recommend this CD for anyone who is exploring and tired of the same old headline smooth jazz names. I think these bands try harder and are truer to their music and play for love and not fame! I started collecting acid jazz by listening to compilations and then getting CDs of the bands whose sounds I like. You will have people asking you "who is that?", when you put this baby in! (Amazon)
