5.0 out of 5 stars Lost Summer, August 1, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Jazzmasters 1 (Audio CD)

The overall CD is great, however, "Lost Summer" is the BEST of all the songs. Paul Hardcastle had everyone anticipating the U.S. release of this album. Lost Summer is a relaxing, smooth and rhythmic track that will always remain in your mental music file!

4.0 out of 5 stars More impeccable musicianship, September 21, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Jazzmasters 1 (Audio CD)

The instrumentalist/producer behind '19' and 'Rainforest' came up with a winner in this 1993 set, released originally on the JVC label. The songs are well-polished adult dance music, easily amenable to fans of the 'smooth jazz' format.

What separates this piece from the 'muzak jazz' pack are the clean production of Paul Hardcastle (who also shines on keys), the lilting, almost Lisa Lisa-like voice of Helen Rogers, and the soulful sax playing of Gary Barnacle (Level 42, Phil Collins etc).

Highlights on this collection are 'Northern Lights' and 'Really Miss Your Love.'
