Kenny G At Last... The Duets Album Smooth Jazz Music CD Review

The extremely talented Smooth Jazz artist Kenny G has released him latest CD on the Arista Records recording label, entitled At Last... The Duets Album.

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 At Last... The Duets Album. 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 when the talent is this rich even if Smooth Jazz isn’t your favorite genre you still can’t help but appreciate the greatness of the artist.

At Last... The Duets Album is a first rate CD, delivering a little something for everyone. I give it two thumbs up. It’s quite simply great listening. A must buy for the Smooth Jazz fan.

While the entire CD is really very good some of my favorit! es are (Everything I Do) I Do It For You, track 3 - I Believe I Can Fly, and track 7 - Baby Come To Me

My SmoothLee Bonus Pick, and the one that got Sore [...as in "Stuck On REpeat"] is track 11 - Sorry Seems To Be The Hardest Word. Good stuff!
