5 out of 5 stars Winelight CD.......2006-06-30

After looking all over town in local retails for this particular CD I came to Amazon and found it. The CD arrived in a timely fashion, and it has been listened to often.

The CD was a gift to my husband who loves light jazz. He and I have been listening to it frequently, it's a great CD with a good mix of instrumental and vocals. I would recommend it if you are a fan of jazz.

5 out of 5 stars THE "new-age" sax man.......2006-01-28

I've always said Grover Washington Jr could teach Kenny G how to play sax. He's smooth and mellow; never pushing his instrument but making his presence known, you know what I mean? This is an easy pop-jazz album; not ordinarily my favorite kind of jazz, but an absolute standard nonetheless. You'll hear Bill Withers (remember him?) singing on the only track with words, "Just the Two of Us". Good background music for that romantic dinner, even after 25 years.

5 out of 5 stars Taking smooth/contemporary jazz 2 the next level.......2005-05-12

I love this record to death ever since I heard it. It's kinda like the 1st ones I got introduced by Grover when I was little kid maybe 5, 6 or something. I'm not sure. But anyway this is surely my favorite album I grew up around my interest in jazz. It shows a new way where Grover is heading to the future and taking it into a new direction until the day of his demise. He's such a genius. I wish he was here which I said all the time. Grover we miss you and wish u were here. I luv every song that's tight incl. the #1 slow jam which won a Grammy 4 it in 1981 "Just the Two of Us" w/ Bill Withers.

Every must-have lover who is a devotee to smooth jazz, contemporary R&B or jazz perhaps, gotta have this if u're lovin this man or is looking 4 some good music. This was a treat since Boney James, Rick Braun, Chris Botti, Dave Koz, Kenny G, Chuck Mangione, The Crusaders, Candy Dulfer, Norman Brown, Paul Brown, Chris Standring, Ronny Jordan, Keiko Matsui, the late Art Porter, the late George Howard, Regina Belle, George Duke, Brian Culbertson, Vanessa Williams, among others took off where Grover left off from this album.

5 out of 5 stars Truly Classic Smooth Jazz.......2004-10-27

There are certain pieces of work that must be included in any decent music collection no matter what your taste in music. We usually refer to these as "classics". "Winelight" is one of those. A delight from beginning to end! More than just fine musical workmanship and technique, Mr. Washington captures the soul and essence of each melody. I first owned this album on vinyl, then moved to tape, and finally CD. Put this album on when you are feeling mellow and want to find a content mood.
