This is just so well done--WAYMAN, WE WILL MISS YOU VERY MUC

"The Very Best of Wayman Tisdale showcases just how great a musician he really was. I can't believe he died today; I was shocked at the terrible news and I am mourning his loss as I write this. His music really meant a lot to me; it's so full of genuine passion, the type you rarely hear in a performer. The quality of the sound on this CD is excellent; and I like that artwork, too.



There's not a dud in the bunch here. Whether it's the fantastic sound of "Power Forward" which doesn't have a single superfluous note, or the slower tempo number "Watch Me Play," there's a very high level of quality control music going on here. The beat is just perfect for this genre of music; and this is excellent music for relaxing with a glass of your favorite wine after a long and stressful day at work.



Other standout tracks include the beautiful and very smooth jazz number entitled "You." "You" is very moving and it truly lacks nothing---this is all THAT good. In addition, "Summer Breeze" evokes just that sense as I listen to it; I love it!



"Passion," predictably, is a very fine number with a great beat; the brass is used very well in the musical arrangement. "Starship" really impresses me; and listen for "Amazing Grace." Amazing Grace" has some great sounds to it and I think you'll like this number. The album ends very nicely with "Circumstance;" "Circumstance" has good vocals to go with the music and that's pretty amazing!



The Very Best Of Wayman Tisdale is clearly a must-have for his fans; and it even makes a great starter CD for people just discovering the artistry of Wayman Tisdale. He was taken from us all too soon; but at least I take comfort in knowing that he lives on through his music.



Rest In Peace, Brother!

"I am a big Tisdale fan and have been for some time. What strikes me most about Wayman is his style of play and the outstanding precision and expertise of his fellow musicians. Crisp, bold, elegant would only be at the tip of the iceberg with the level of professionalism and excellence in the use of the bass guitar, saxaphone and vocals on display. If you are a fan of jazz this has to be included in your favorites."
