Album Description
Dreamin' is another double-CD compilation of smooth jazz grooves drawn from the Jazz FM playlist. Like its predecessors Driftin' and Breezin' it follows the evocative "escape" theme, but takes a slightly more up-tempo approach. It ranges from the seductive vocal stylings of Luther Vandross and Nicholas Bearde to the grittier funk instrumentals of Jeff Lorber, Jeff Golub and Joyce Cooling.

Customer Reviews

Escape into your imagination with the perfect soundtrack…
This album follows in the footsteps of its two predecessors, Driftin’ and Breezin’, and is a stellar collection of contemporary smooth jazz as featured on jazz fm. It blends cool vocal jazz from the likes of Luther Vandross, Pete Belasco and Boz Scaggs with sophisticated and refined instrumentals. Amongst the finest of these are Lee Ritenour’s & Dave Grusin’s ‘Get Up, Stand Up’ and Jeff Lorber’s ‘Ain't Nobody’, along with the excellent Allon Sams track, ‘The Sun Will Shine’, a vibrant mélange of piano and vocal jazz.

Don’t be put off if you are unfamiliar with the artists on this CD. It is truly a heady, mesmerizing, mellow compilation of the very best names in contemporary smooth jazz that will leave you playing the CD time and again. Okay, so it may not contain the more provocative material of the Inspired series, or those albums released on the Hed Kandi label, but with diversity like this you won’t even notice. Useful liner notes from resident jazz fm DJ Steve Quirk and excellent sound quality make this album a credit to your collection.
