I bought this CD because a friend of mine said it was great and he was right. John Wilkins has a warm and beautiful guitar sound and the interaction between the players is amazing. It is a great Jazz CD with good repertoire and extremely good musicians. I am sure anyone who buys it will listen to it over and over.

I am enjoying this CD from John Wilkins very much for its great playing and communication between players. There is a really nice variety of tunes and feelings also. I hope he does more recordings soon.

I generally avoid debut albums by people I've never heard before, but fortunately I made an exception for this one. Guitarist John Wilkins' first CD effort as a leader is outstanding! With bassists Bronek Suchanek and Jerry Wilfong and drummer Kenny Hadley, Wilkins presents 55 minutes or so of fine standards like "Bluesette," "Softly as in a Morning Sunrise," "Wee Small Hours" and "Like Someone in Love," together with seven other tunes you may not have heard so often. It's a great album to provide soft sounds while you're reading, writing or engaged in other pursuits of a basically quiet nature. I'm glad I gave this one a listen. It's been in my "play stack" for several weeks now.
