In The Moment by Everette Harp: Smooth Jazz CD Review
by Lee Dennis, a.k.a. SmoothLee
The exceptionally talented Smooth Jazz Artist
Everette Harp has
released his latest CD entitled In The Moment. I am very confident
and happy to announce that I believe Everette Harp fans, and smooth jazz fans alike will
be pleased with this one. With the release of In The Moment Everette Harp's artistic
excellence is on full display as he has once again delivered a brilliant
collection of tracks that could very well be his best work to date.

samples of each song on In The
Moment by Everette.
The CD launches with a great track, Monday
Speaks, that will definitely be heard on smooth jazz radio stations everywhere,
and deservedly so. From there Harp proceeds to display why he is considered
one the greatest smooth jazz artists of our time as he mixes his signature style throughout the CD.
These days it's a very rare CD on which every
single song is good or better than the one before it. This CD is certainly one
of those rare CDs.
In fact I'd go so far as to assert that Harp's
best work has come in his last to releases. Now having distinguished his own
unique voice on the saxophone.
Smooth Jazz music fans will recognize some of
the well known guests that have been assembled to play along with Harp on
several of the tracks. Artists like Paul Jackson Jr., George Duke and Chuck Loeb
just to name a few.
Overall I'd say Everette Harp scores big with
In The Moment. Continuing his rise as a top smooth jazz sax player. Definitely a worthy addition to any smooth jazz
collection.
Truly an outstanding smooth jazz
CD. One of those that is completely void of any wasted time, as each track is
absolutely superb.
While this entire CD is outstanding the truly
standout tunes are Monday Speaks [track 1], Just As You Are [track 4],
and Another Bedtime Story [track 6]. My SmoothLee Bonus Pick, and the one that got Sore
[...as in "Stuck On REpeat"] is track 2, Holla. Very nice!
