"I picked up this CD from a friend who couldn't stop talking about it and now neither can I. If you love jazz or if you hate jazz these cds are great. This is just a cool sound. ITs cool its funky and it makes you feel good. They hit the groove at the start and they dont leave. Any one who has a sunday morning jazz time buy this"

"Words cannot describe how well this album was put together. This is within my top five favorite compilations ever made. The tracks flow into one another smoothy and effortlessly. Jazzanova's arrangements of these songs apply different moods to the album that transend from melodic to jazzy to lounge-like "chill time" moods. This album is perfect for a dinner party, get together or a summer drive in the country. Plus the mastering on the album is so crisp and clean, that it is hard to believe that these songs were recorded over 20 years ago.



Jazzanova hits the mark on making this album as one of the greatest compilations ever made!

So-so, not very funky, chilled, or remixed at all

So-so. I can't hear much (or any, really) Jazzanova influence, it just sounds like standard Blue Note jazz, if that's your thing... no hipster stylings to it, just kind of dull middle aged jazz tunes. I wish Jazzanova had worked more of their magic on these cuts!



So if you are expecting something chillout, downtempo, electronica, etc, you'll be disappointed. But if you want straight jazz, get it."
