5.0 out of 5 stars Zachary's best work yet., August 28, 2005

Zachery Breaux was a brillant musician. It breaks my heart knowing that we will never get any more music from him. "Where is the love", among a few other singles from other musicians is the best jazz musicial I have ever heard. RIP Zachary.

5.0 out of 5 stars Gone too soon, December 11, 2006

This review is from: Groovin' (Audio CD)

This is one of the best jazz albums recorded live I've ever heard. Recorded in London at Ronnie Scott's Club in 1992, these 49 minutes and change of a brilliant performance delivered by guitarman Zachary Breaux blew me away. The classic "Coming home baby" is a true gem. Zachary plays it with passion and perfection which is something so hard to achieve musically speaking. Often times technique cools off passion or passion blurs technique. Also Roberta Flack's "Where is the love" delivers another brilliant moment and Breaux is not shy to explore different venues when he chooses to cover Tito Puente's "Picadillo" or downright take on the blues with his own composition "Alice (Down in Parks Louisiana)". It's very sad not having Zachary around us anymore. He had so much to offer. I'll truly miss his talent. If you are a jazz fan I certainly urge you to get this album.

5.0 out of 5 stars A blend of everything. THe must is that guitar, amazing!, October 14, 1999

This review is from: Groovin (Audio CD)

This cd blends up a lot of styles. It is a jazz cd taht makes use of rock, blues , great moods and adds up some latin rythms in it. It is great. Some songs are also nice jazzy tunes with a feeling taht'll make you want to cry. To say Breaux's guitar talks out is an understatement. For any good music lover this is a must, and the jazz fans won't be dissappointed at all. Show this cd to your freinds and they'll love it. But mostly, you'll find yourself flying as you listen to it, to the great musical abilities in it, and in time you'll find yourself doing some da-da-da in your mind, and feel so relaxed by great music.
