4.0 out of 5 stars A great feel-good album !, April 9, 2009

This fine selection of relaxed smooth grooves is a great backdrop for the guitar playing of Paul Brown and Marc Antoine.
Paul and Marc compliments each other's playing wonderfully.
Wholly instrumental, slick grooves like "Wine Night", the clipped rhythm of "Brother Earl" and the title track flow seamlessly.
It is however the quality of the simple melodies that stands out - "What About Bob" illustrates this - nothing fancy or complex, yet the music is most enjoyable.
Paul Brown's production is as easy on the ear as ever. His style almost defines Smooth Jazz.
Paul's playing is exquisitely smooth too, whilst Marc Antoine adds a touch of French/Spanish flavours too.
My favourite tracks: "French Connection" and "Bridges Of Paris".
Enjoy.

5.0 out of 5 stars Essential smooth jazz-pop buy!, June 2, 2010

I tend to prefer more of the pop bend of smooth jazz like this. My wife doesn't listen to music like this, but she really enjoyed the smoothness of this, and this is great for mellowing out on a Sunday afternoon..it isn't too sleepy. Great blend (I think) of Acoustic Alchemy, Wes Montgomery, and even some nice sax, flute & keyboard parts mixed in. Real smooth and very enjoyable in my book. Check out the sound bytes!

The guitars of Paul Brown & Mark Antoine unite to give a fabulous performance of smooth jazz/menco. If you love music heard on the Weather Channel, this CD is for you.
