4.0 out of 5 stars The Weather Channel...., April 23, 2003

would have no "now, the local weather forecast" music without Fattburger (and Spyro Gyra). This group never deviates from its reliable formula of Evan Marks' guitar shining on a few tracks (that he presumedly wrote) then dragging through several average collaborative efforts with Hollis Gentry showing up unannounced like he's still trying out for the band (he's not yet listed as an official member). Sizzlin is a very strong opening number and stretches out at the end into a faux-hammond groove. Stay A Little Longer the next track is a nice R/B flavored track built around Hollis' soprano. You're Finally Here is a tasty ensenble number with a little flugel horn slipped in for texture. Then that inevitable dragging thing sets in until Mr C the final track which is the band cutting loose 70's Crusader "Scratch" style-this time with a real Hammond. Sizzlin has enough substance to satisfy and meets expectations of Fattburger affectionados.

Sizzlin cooks with a delicious dose of smooth jazz grooves to delight every Fattburger fan. Standouts are the catchy cuts Sizzlin', You're Finally Here, The Lizard and Bleu Cheese. You know with Fattburger there's lots to digest in their masterful CDs. Two points: why is the group using the same cover photo from 2001's www.fattburger.com cd? They must have other photos or maybe they're camera shy! Second, no Santana covers. Fattburger would really sizzle doing a Santana tribute CD. What about it guys?

With the exception of Paul Hardcastle's Jazzmasters, Fattburger is my favorite smooth jazz group. Sizzlin' is another fine CD, but the only outstanding melody is the title track.
