"Kirk Whalum is one of my favorites, but this CD jeopardizes his current releases. The recordings sound like they were performed in a garage, not a studio, and the background instruments sound digitally created like that from a Casio keyboard.
Don't waste money on this one.His release "Unconditional" is incredible! Spend your money there!"
The Worst of Kirk Whalum
J. Hubbard | 12/04/2002
(1 out of 5 stars)
"Kirk Whalum is a fantastic saxophonist but this one is a disaster!! It doesn't deserve a mention let alone a place in the collection of true Jazz lovers. Please do not judge Whalum by this CD. I'd recommend 'Unconditional' instead."
Michael Jordan of Jazz

"Kirk Whalum is truly the Michael Jordan of Jazz. His worst music is better than most artist's best. This is a very good CD, but not really the Best of Kirk Whalum. From hearing his new CD, I have a feeling that the best of Kirk Whalum is still coming. Still, I would definitely buy this CD again."

"The other reviews are wrong! I am a serious jazz fan..and I think the other comments are completely rediculous. I LOVE this album! I've listened to Kirk for years and I relate to the tracks on this album. A DEFINITE album for the collection."
