5 out of 5 stars Smooth As Silk!.......2003-04-08

This is an absolutely beautiful sounding CD. Janine Alondres has a magnificent voice, and you will be enthralled at every song. This music can calm you, relax you, and help you 'step away' from your hectic, busy day. Janine Alondres is truly a talent to be noticed. She is definitely up there with some of the great female talents, such as Barbra Streisand, Diana Krall, Diane Shurr. This CD goes great with a cool beverage, be it champagne, or sparkling water,with a slice of lime. And of course, together with a starlit night it is perfection. (But in NYC reality, I've put this CD on my walkman, and within just a few NYC busy/noisy blocks (streets), among the heavy traffic, I felt like I was in a peaceful oasis. You can't top that!

          5 out of 5 stars Jazz Fusion Guitar Virtuoso.......2003-03-03

          Steve Gordon has put together a very solid album of primarily instrumental tracks that showcase both his technical virtuosity on the electric guitar and his amazing sense of melodic themes that he develops throughout this album. Displaying his versatility throughout, he builds songs using smooth jazz themes, yet brings an intensity more prevalent in rock, as he scales the dynamics of these songs up and down, almost as if making love to his guitar. From George Benson to Jeff Beck...he covers a lot of styles, sometimes in the context of a single song, yet it all fits together seamlessly. The final track, while somewhat out of character compared to the rest of the material, is a nice blues/rock song reminiscent of Stevie Ray Vaughn. Track 4 (Visions Within) is a standout instrumental ballad. You won't be disappointed in this cd if you are jazz/fusion lover.
