"These are some very nice tracks from great and legendary artists and I highly recommend it. I am especially moved by Bradley Joseph's "Friday's Child" and David Benoit's "Cast Your Fate To The Wind", both awesome pianists. I hope TWC puts out more CDs."

"Amazing! Seriously, what more to life is there. Music. Weather. Perfect!
I was eating a grilled cheese sandwich the first time I heard this album, and I do not think cheese will ever taste the same again!
Also, I learned that I could "request" music from the weather channel after the first volume came out, so I have been calling in requests for "Breakfast at Igor's" by Spyro Gyra every single day; imagine my stoke when it made this list!
I know that Charlie Parker often nods off watching TV, but he must feel so blessed to be included on this compilation."
Awesome collection!

"While I'm not a fan of all jazz music, I do enjoy most of the smooth jazz and instrumental music played during Local on the 8s. This CD is a good sampling of their most popular music. I am more partial to the piano-based tunes and have to admit to being a diehard Bradley Joseph fan so seeing the inclusion of his song "Friday's Child" on this CD was a thrill and always love to hear his tunes on TWC. More great tracks that stand out for me are "La Salsa En Mi" by Bernie Williams and "Restless Heart" by Chris Geith, and definately David Benoit's "Cast Your Fate to the Wind".

"and it is just as outstanding as the first one. I would love to know who at the Weather Channel chooses the music because they have GREAT TASTE in jazz. These CD's are great for kickin back and relaxing with a good glass of wine and a plate of cheese. They are also good for getting a taste of various jazz artists who are currently on the jazz scene across the country."
