Every track on the CD is worth listening over and over again. Too bad it didn't last longer. Smooth Jazz fans especially those who like George Benson will not be disappointed. Joyce has a winner here!

Having always been a classic rocker, I am a new fan of smooth jazz. I recently started listening to it at work because I work in a basement office and the local smooth jazz station is really the only thing we can pick up with decent reception. After listening for a few weeks, it was Joyce Cooling's stuff that really started to stand out to me. There was just something unique there and it's not any of the cookie cutter stuff you hear a lot with the eventual sax solo. I recently bought "Playing It Cool" and I'm having a hard time taking it out of my CD player. Each song is well written and the musicianship is second to none. Joyce recently appeared at the local jazz fest and I've been sick over the fact that I didn't go. If you're ready to try smooth jazz, Joyce Cooling is a great place to start.

Joyce Cooling is a superb guitarist. "Playing It Cool" is, in my
subjective opinion, not only Joyce's best CD, but an incredible
sampling of one of smooth jazz's finest guitarists. I personally
could pass on the vocals. THis CD is a must for all smooth jazz fans. "Sleight Of Hand" is fiery and amazing. "Savannah" and "South Of Market" are favorites. While Joyce's other CD's have some great tracks(Third Wish in particular), this disc is first rate from start to finish.
