5 out of 5 stars New Jazz Lover.......2004-08-28

5 out of 5 stars He was my first...........2004-05-14

Would that there were more stars to give to his rating. He paints a picture so well with his groovin' that you just can't help but be moved. He was the first smooth jazz I heard that made me want to explore the genre more. Right after that, a local (shortlived) station came on the scene, and played many more of his songs. I was an owner of two of his CD's before the next weekend came. Awesome, totally awesome, and too cool to express...do yourself a favor and become an owner and fan of his music.

5 out of 5 stars Great starting point for a great trumpeteer!.......2004-04-26

I really like a lot of Rick Braun's music and some of his songs are absolutely amazing. This "best of" collection compiles most of these tracks. My absolutely favorite song on this compilation is his 1994 classic "Nightwalk". This song took my breath away with his rich Flugel Horn sounds and the haunting New Age atmospherics blending with a great rhythm, this song is a masterpiece. A close runner up is his 1997 smash "Notorious". I can easily remember when this song was brand new on the radio and 7 years since first hearing it, this song has lasted very well over time and still is popular even today. Some other known songs are "Club Harlem", and "Cadillac Slim" which are very funky and upbeat.

This is a great starting place if you are a newbie to Rick Braun. For veteran fans, there isn't much a need to put this on top of your list unless you like the cover version of Roberta Flack's "Feel Like Makin Love".

5 out of 5 stars The Very Best of Braun.......2003-04-05

One could listen to this CD over and over and find new nuances. Rick Braun's trumpeting is soulful, clear and refreshing.
