Biography

Norman Brown is the US born smooth jazz guitarist whose success has seen him dubbed 'the second coming of George Benson'.

Brown's young life was spent in Kansas, where early exposure to Hendrix convinced him he wanted to be an axeman. He was turned on to jazz by his father and after graduation he moved to the West Coast to study at Musicians Institute in LA. Gigging on the LA jazz scene eventually… Read more in Amazon's Norman Brown Store

Editorial Reviews

Today, Norman Brown remains at the top of the smooth jazz guitar mountain. This compilation of crŠme de la crŠme tracks from Brown's three MoJazz releases gives you the where he came from, the who he is, and most importantly, the why he matters so damn much to the world of jazz . . . period. From Wes Montgomery to George Benson to Norman Brown, the soulful guitar jazz circle is unbroken. Universal. 2005.

3.0 out of 5 stars Anything but!, June 5, 2006
By 
This review is from: Very Best of (Audio CD)
No track from "Celebration"?That is a huge joke,because that is Brown's best album ever,infact it's hard to see him will outdo himself on any future release.I can't believe that he didn't include material from what most people consider his best work.That for me kills off the idea of a "Best of..." compilation.
I feel the guy is just trying to remind us where he's been,because I would have flooded an album titled as such with tracks from a gem of a piece of work.No "Outa Nowhere", no "Celebration",no "Breaking Out",no "Paradise"...what am i looking back at?
Not rubbishing his career,though.He's had a great one so far,except that his last full release was terrible.He owes us fans an apology for trying to sound and feel like George Benson,as if we haven't had enough of one person and his antics.It was a lazy effort,to say the least and I hope he can do much better next time around

5.0 out of 5 stars Norman is so cool, September 19, 2009
By 
Mait "smumate" (San Antonio, Texas United States) - See all my reviews
I met him on a jazz cruise and he is really a cool dude. The problem with a greatest hits album is that every album he cranks out IS one. Just buy After the Storm and then each subsequent one when you have money until you have them all! God bless Norman!

This review is from: Very Best of (Audio CD)
I never knew that Norman Brown was this good, I knew the guy had talent but this is great. I know he sound alot like George Benson, but he great this has to be one of his best C D's. I heard some of his music on the Oasis, I thought it was benson. I was driving had a friend in the car with me he heard the c d and thought it was the station, I said no that Mr. Browns Boy (Norman) he just smile and said i have to have dat c d great job Norman great Music.
