"OMgoodness what can I say but "Ultimate Man of Music" he is so great if you have not listened to any of his music whether it's his latest or most recent you are in for a treat he makes the keyboards bow down to him. His music is breath taking, exhilarating, smooth, his performance is outstanding and he knows how to keep a crowd of people from different backgrounds and cultures pleased."

"Ok, longtime Alex fans, I'm a newbie but better late than never! A neighborhood friend who was a big brother to me (and a total jazz head) told me about Alex when I was in high school, when he debuted in the late '80s. I didn't start checking out jazz 'til my college days so I didn't follow Alex's career much (was following Joe Sample and others), but I would always hear about his performances at various venues. Years later in summer 04, my Mom and I saw him in at a jazz all-star show. I was blown away by his playing, and I remember some ladies behind us talking about how sexy he was, too -- Mom and I agreed :) My Mom passed the following year but I remember that she kept the ticket stub, which I now have. We thoroughly enjoyed that show, Alex definitely being one of the highlights, so it's a fond last memory with her that I'll never forget. As I view the track listing on this compilation CD, I think old and new fans will love it but to be honest, the newbies would be cheating themselves. I'm going to see Alex again soon so I finally decided to check out all his stuff on Rhapsody. GEEZ, I have a lot of catching up to do as far as purchasing, EVERY LAST ONE OF HIS CD'S IS HOTTT!!! To the newbies, check out more of his stuff, you won't be disappointed. I certainly wasn't!! An old/new fan..."
