A Musical Treat

"I will have to admit the only person I recognize on this cd was Ramsey Lewis. Having said that, for a cast of relatively unknown talent, they may have hit the jackpot. At least in my opinion. I heard "Sweet Home Chicago" and knew instantly that Ramsey Lewis was an integral part of this effort. Some of my other favorites include, "Dancing Angels", a revamped version of "Midnight In Madrid", "The Gypsy", and finally "You're The One For Me." The instrumental version is spectacular. I have no problem recommending this cd as an addition to your smooth jazz collection. I have the previous Urban Knight cd's and Grover Washington has to be proud to have this effort dedicated to his illustrious memory."

"I loved this CD! It has spirit and imagination! I own the Urban Knights trilogy and I must admit that this is their best effort yet! Their debut CD lured me in, this third CD will keep my attentions focused! If you like contemporary jazz, you'll love this CD!"

Excellent introduction to Urban Knights

"I don't know why it has taken me so long to do a review on this I have had it since it came out. Wonderful CD at least 5 GREAT Songs on this CD. It was my first Urban Knights CD since then I have purchased 3 more and this still is my favorite one. It's a wonder it has been found on many Jazz enthusiasts Listmania Lists here on Amazon.As I say in all of my Music reviews, (please take the time to browse them)everyone has their own "ear" for music and the Radio Station out here that plays smooth Jazz played the "heck" out of Track #6 "Sweet Home Chicago" (which is a excellent Cha Cha song BTW) and also I really grooved to track #5 "Strung Out" slow mellow song for those of us who can identify LOL I usually like a good variety on my CD's a combination of slow songs and songs I can jump up and dance to....... this CD did not let me down. This whole CD is one that on a day that you want to put some CD's in the mixer and kick back. Put the player on random and ENJOY ((smile))Respectfully Reviewed"
