Best of Smooth Jazz [Warner]
(1997)

by
Various Artists
One could imagine this extremely radio-friendly grab bag as the sole "jazz" album on the shelf of a casual Wal-Mart shopper who bought it on an impulse. Indeed, it will give the harried consumer on the go an hour or so of easy-listening jazz, chosen with some care from a 21-year span of Warner Bros. recordings and ranging from the most recycled ...

Politics
(1988)
more music like this
by
The Yellowjackets
A nearly complete departure from smooth jazz, Politics is arguably the Yellowjackets' strongest effort to date. True, there is the pure pop of the single "Local Hero" (which features a rhythm section more rock than jazz) and the accessible "Evening Dance" to be considered, but they're the exceptions rather than the rule. Like Four Corners before ...

A Twist of Jobim
(1997)
more music like this
by
Various Artists
The debut release from the I.E. label (which is connected with Polygram) is an unusual multi-artist tribute to the music of Antonio Carlos Jobim. Some of his tunes are made funky (but in a melodic and tasteful way), while others become quiet (but still passionate) ballads. The treatments are all jazz-oriented, and there is plenty of solo space for ...

This addition to the seemingly never-ending 20th Century Masters series finds Universal digging into the GRP archives for this Yellowjackets compilation, which is decidedly different than 1999's Best of Yellowjackets collection and resembles in slightly modified form GRP's 1995 greatest-hits compilation, aptly titled Collection. The band is ...

Twenty-four songs from the vaults of Goldband Records in Lake Charles, LA, most from the late '50s and early '60s. Hardly anyone from outside Louisiana will recognize any of these performers; in fact, most people from within the state borders won't either. With an unpolished feel (both in fidelity and performance) that can border on garage ...

You won't find any straight-ahead acoustic jazz on Jazzin', a ten-track compilation that JCI assembled in 1990. This collection is strictly for those who like their jazz laced with a lot of funk, rock, or pop. Jazz purists and bop snobs will want to avoid Jazzin', which spans 1975-1989 and ranges from fusion to crossover jazz/NAC and quiet storm ...
