Everette Harp For The Love
May 28th, 2007Not sure what’s happening with me on this one, but it seems like the more I listen to it, the 
better For The Love gets. For The Love stated simply is one of Everette Harp’s best CDs to date.
Refreshingly, this was one of those CDs I was able to just pop in and comfortably listen to from beginning to end. Every track is enjoyable and was pretty easy for me to listen to from start to finish.
The nice thing about a CD like this is with this level of talent even if Smooth Jazz isn’t your favorite genre you still can’t help but appreciate the greatness of the artist.
Overall For The Love is outstanding from beginning to end. One of those CDs that after a few listens the songs are just etched into your memory. A must have for the Smooth Jazz fan. Really spectacular from beginning to end.
My SmoothLee Bonus Pick, and the one that got Sore […as in “Stuck On REpeat”] is track 3, I Miss You With Me. It’s a great track!
