Alex Bugnon Free
October 4th, 2005Richly talented Smooth Jazz artist Alex Bugnon has released his latest album titled Free 
and Wow! It’s good.
Free is a pleasantly varied, mix of 10 tracks that are very well written songs by this clearly gifted artist.
One of the nicer things about a CD like this is with this level of talent even if Smooth Jazz isn’t your favorite style you still can’t help but appreciate the greatness of the artist.
If you’re even mildly into Smooth Jazz music you’ll enjoy this album. Overall Free is an outstanding release. I give it my double thumbs up. You will not be disappointed with one single track.
My SmoothLee Bonus Pick, and the one that got Sore […as in “Stuck On REpeat”] is track 6, Downtime. This is a great track!

Jazz keyboardist Alex Bugnon had a successful career as a studio musician before becoming an equally well-known solo performer. The year 2005’s FREE, the artist’s ninth release under his own name, offers more of the instrumental jazz-pop mixture that has come to characterize his output. While FREE isn’t particularly challenging, it is full of smooth, light, percolating grooves, bright, memorable melodies, and tight, straightforward playing that makes for a pleasant and relaxing listen.
