Mindi Abair "It Just Happens That Way" Smooth Jazz CD Review
It Just Happens That Way launches with a great track, Lucy's that I anticipate will be heard on radio stations everywhere, and deservedly so. It really is a very nice track.
This entire CD has a nicely varied, mix of 12 tracks that are very nicely constructed songs by this clearly superb artist.
Listen to this CD and I believe you'll find there's not much to dis-like about it. The songs are inspired, the production is simply outstanding, and Mindi Abair's Sax work is superb. 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 Flirt [track 2], Save The Last Dance [track 3], Right On [track 6].
My SmoothLee Bonus Pick, and the one that got Sore [...as in "Stuck On REpeat"] is track 2, Flirt. Great track!
