Gregg Karukas "Heatwave" Smooth Jazz Music CD Review
I wish it weren't the case but, 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 Heatwave. Every track is enjoyable and was pretty easy for me to listen to from start to finish.
Heatwave has a nicely varied, mix of 12 very nicely put together tracks from this clearly talented artist. One of the good things 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.
Heatwave is a first rate CD, delivering a little something for everyone. I give it my highest recommendation. It's quite simply great listening. A must buy for the Smooth Jazz fan.
