Brian Culbertson Come On Up
June 30th, 2007Come On Up is the latest release from Smooth Jazz Artist Brian Culbertson, and is another winner from this talented musician.
Come On Up has a nicely varied, mix of 12 tracks from this piano playing whiz that are very nicely put together songs by this clearly gifted artist. Most of the songs display a lot of the kind emotion that makes for a really great listen.
Brian Culbertson possesses the characteristic of being able to bowl you over with his talent alone. The kind of artist I really enjoy listening to.
Listen to Come On Up and I believe you’ll find there’s not much to dis-like about it. The songs are inspired and the production is simply outstanding. If you’re even mildly into Smooth Jazz music you’ll enjoy this CD.
