Will Downing Emotions Pop Music CD Review

Emotions is the latest release from Smooth Jazz Superstar Will Downing, and is another winner from this talented musician.

Emotions grabs your attention right from the start with A Million Ways and doesn't let go until the very last note of the very last song Anything, which by the way is another great track.

The nice thing about a CD like this is with this level of talent even if Smooth Jazz isn't your favorite genre you still can't help but appreciate the greatness of the artist.

This is a first rate CD, delivering a little something for everyone. I give it two thumbs up. It's quite simply great listening. A must buy for the Smooth Jazz fan.

While the entire CD is really very good some of my favorites are track 2, King Of Fools, track 3, Daydreaming, track 8, Another Sad Story.

My SmoothLee Bonus Pick, and the one that got Sore [...as in "Stuck On REpeat"] is track 5, Hey There Lonely Girl. Wow!
