Jeff Golub Grand Central
March 6th, 2007Grand Central is the latest release from Smooth Jazz Artist Jeff Golub, and I can only think
of one word to describe this CD… AWESOME!
I wish it weren’t the case but, it’s not everyday that I get a CD from an artist that I can just pop in and comfortably listen to from beginning to end. There is usually a song or two that I just can’t force myself to get through. Not at all the case with Grand Central. Every track is enjoyable and was pretty easy for me to listen to from start to finish.
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.
Grand Central is a first rate CD, delivering a little something for everyone. I give it my highest recommendation. It’s quite simply great listening. A must buy if you’re even mildly into Smooth Jazz music.
My SmoothLee Bonus Pick, and the one that got Sore […as in “Stuck On REpeat”] is track 4, Mojito. It’s a great track!
