Free is the latest release from Smooth Jazz Star Alex Bugnon, and I can only think of one word to describe this CD... AWESOME!
Unfortunately, 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 Free. Every track is enjoyable and was pretty easy for me to listen to from start to finish.
Free has a nicely varied, mix of 10 tracks that are very well written songs by this clearly gifted artist.
One of the nicer things about a CD like this is with this level of talent even if Smooth Jazz isn't your favorite style you still can't help but appreciate the greatness of the artist.
Listen to this CD and I believe you'll find there's not much to dis-like about it. The songs are inspired and the overall production is simply outstanding. If you're even mildly into Smooth Jazz music you'll enjoy this album.
While this entire album is outstanding the truly standout tracks are Free [track 1], In Your Eyes [track 4], and Pillow Talk [track 8].
My SmoothLee Bonus Pick, and the one that got Sore [...as in "Stuck On REpeat"] is track 6, Downtime. Wow!
