Fourplay Yes, Please Smooth Jazz Music CD Review

The extremely talented group Fourplay has released their latest CD on the Warner Bros. Records recording label, entitled Yes, Please.

It's a rare day indeed that I get a CD from an artist that I can truthfully say does not have a bad track in the bunch. I'm more than happy to announce that?s exactly what I must say about this one. There simply is NOT a bad one in the bunch. No fillers here at all, with each song standing tall on it's own.

Yes, Please is a nicely varied, mix of 11 tracks that are very well written and brilliantly performed songs by these clearly outstanding musicians. With many of the songs displaying a lot of the kind emotion that makes for a really great listen. Clearly drawing from what I can only imagine are from life experiences. At different points touching on the most real emotions of love, heartbreak, pain, failed relationships and unattainable romance. They?re all here.

One of the refreshingly nice things about this CD is the way all of the participating artists seem to be really enjoying themselves. Combine that with the overall presentation and you?ve got one of Fourplay most impressive releases ever.

If you?re a Fourplay fan this is a CD your collection flat cannot be without. In fact, this is one of those CDs that you don?t even have to be a Smooth Jazz fan to know is good. This is just good music. Period.

While this entire album is really very good some of my favorites are track 2 - Double Trouble, track 3 - Once Upon A Love, and track 8 - Go With Your Heart

My SmoothLee Bonus Pick, and the one that got Sore [...as in "Stuck On REpeat"] is track 6 - Save Some Love For Me. Wow!
