Walter Beasley For Her Smooth Jazz Music CD Review
For Her is the latest Smooth Jazz CD released by the richly talented Walter Beasley who once again has delivered a brilliant collection of tracks. Walter Beasley fans, and Smooth Jazz fans alike will be pleased with this one.
I wish it weren?t the case but it?s not everyday that I get a CD from an artist that I can just pop in and comfortably listen to from beginning to end. There is usually a song or two that I just can?t force myself to get through. Not at all the case with For Her. Every track is enjoyable and was pretty easy for me to listen to from start to finish.
For Her has a nicely varied, mix of 11 tracks that are very well written songs by this clearly superb artist. Most of the songs display a lot of the kind emotion that makes for a really great listen. Seemingly drawing from what I can only imagine are him own personal experiences. At different points touching on the most real emotions like 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 Walter Beasley?s most impressive releases ever.
Smooth Jazz music fans will recognize some of the well-known guests that have been assembled to play along with Beasley on several of the tracks. Artists like Chuck Loeb and Tyronne Chase just to name a couple.
Overall For Her is an outstanding release. What I call must have music. I give it two thumbs up and is most definitely a worthy addition to any Smooth Jazz collection. Truly an outstanding Smooth Jazz CD. One of those that is completely void of any wasted time, as each track is simply superb.
While this entire album is really very good some of my favorites are track 1 - She's All That, track 4 - Good Morning, and track 10 - Things Change
My SmoothLee Bonus Pick, and the one that got Sore [...as in "Stuck On REpeat"] is track 6 - Don't Say Goodnight. It?s a great track!
