 How disappointing September 2, 2008
Jo Morris (England)
5 out of 7 found this review helpful
I was so looking forward to this, based on the radio advertising that I had heard. But when it arrived I could not have been more disappointed. The songs that were heard on the radio, were basically all the best ones, the rest of the album was rubbish. I love jazz but this album is not relaxing or enjoyable and I would not recommend it.
 Jazz needs more exposure August 24, 2008

I'm giving this 5 stars in an attempt to bring the overall rating to a more realistic level (at the time of writing the low level is caused by McStick's particularly unhelpful and blinkered comments).
The tracks on this CD are classics of the jazz genre. The CD is a perfect introduction to the more mellow regions of the jazz world. As it is designed to accompany Classic FM's midnight show then I would say that it hits the spot perfectly in that regard too.
If you are a jazz lover then the chances are you will have most of these tracks in your collection already. If you are new to jazz - possibly introduced to it by the Classic FM show - then this seems to me to be an excellent CD to buy.
A question: why in the UK do we have two radio stations almost entirely dedicated to classical music and no jazz stations?
