I first heard ZB on the local 'smooth jazz' station back in '96 or so. It naturally stood out strongly because it is not smooth jazz, or at least what I think of as smooth jazz. Peter White is smooth jazz, with boring drum machines, limited tone, and just plain fluff. ZB represents the long lineage of fine true jazz guitarists that came before him, from Charlie Christian through Wes Montgomery and Grant Green, then George Benson, and now with the likes of Chris Standring and Norman Brown. This is real music, with soul and punch, and great variety of moods on one disc. It's worth every penny. I also have Laidback and Groovin' (which I found in a Tucson used music store in '99, after searching for a copy for 6 months...) They are both wonderful, full of passion, with a little bit of an edge. This music will keep you smiling.

I am korean. I heard Cafe Reggio when I was in New York for my studying. Sometimes I heard it from WQ CD 101.9 that is smoohtjazz station in New York. But at that time I did not know the musitian and title. It took about a week to find out this music and musitian. I happened to find smoothjazz guitar album and wrote down names of the players. I searched all of them name by name in this amazon address. Finally I fount this. This passion shows the degree I like this music. Easy melody and very wonderful sound

In this order I must say, Groovin', Laidback and Uptown Groove. Too bad Zach is gone, his cd's will always be in an important place among my other cd's. After 2:00 Am on the East Coast is a relaxed song for making you think of your most emotional experiences. I have the idea of how Zach creates his music and puts so much effort into it, since he plays many instruments. Knowing Zachary has always been a caring and emotional person, all of that show in his music. I love this life too Zach. Be sure we will all be Thinking of Alexis. Your inheritage has made me believe in music, in musicians doing what they love.
