5 out of 5 stars A Very good and relaxing music.......2007-02-01

All the songs on the CD are unique for each of them, the song with the saxophone is pretty good although the saxophone sound is a little bit estimated comparing to guitar. Most songs are sounding alike they have been taken from previos material by Peter and it looks like The Best of...by Peter White although the background of composing is different (from that Ive read in some other reviews on internet). It would be rather warmly welcomed for this artist to come to Montenegro and have a performance if by a chance he has a possibility. The label Columbia knows what appeals to be listened by the majority of customers so this is a hit indeed. There is a lack in cover though.

5 out of 5 stars Smooth..........2004-07-08

This quite frankly is my most favorite Peter White cd. You can play the first eight tracks without having to press the "next" button on your cd player. Actually, the last two tracks aren't bad either. Perfect Moment, the fourth track on this cd, can easily make anyone reminisce. The sixth track, Autumn Day, adds a change in style by giving some beat to the cd as well as midnight in manhattan. Totally have to recommend this one for anyone looking for a solid smooth jazz cd.

5 out of 5 stars It's Just Perfect.......2004-04-25

What I enjoy about Peter White's music is that so often his CDs combine his familiar rhythmic style with well-loved R&B tunes from the 70's as well as a melodic surprise or two. While this CD doesn't contain any retrospectives from the 70's, it is full of pieces with well developed structure and harmonious melodies. The surprise for me on Perfect Moment was finding three tracks that seemed to present themselves as being more than just "smooth." Another Rainy Day, The View From Your Window & Windy City are truly standouts! Each has layers and texture that make them more than just everyday radio fare.

I recommend it highly.

I bought this CD in a music store in Hawaii, put it on, looked out the window at the sea and the sunset, and fell in love with Peter White. He is an incredible guitarist with just the right touch. If you find his music too "light", I urge you to see him in concert. He is a magical player, and his live performance is charged with energy. When I want to go back to Hawaii, I just put on this CD, and there I am!

5 out of 5 stars A Moment to always remember!.......2004-01-01

This 1998 outing from Peter White is just a moving work of art and stands out among the smooth jazz genre. I've enjoyed smooth jazz my whole life adn while it has become increasingly predictable, it is one of the few genres to maintain it's integrity while mainstream rock, rap, and R&B have turned into street kill of garbage.

My favorite songs on here are "San Diego", "Don't Want To Be A Fool" and "My Prayer". The cover version of Luther Vandross' classic "Don't Want To Be A Fool" is one of my favorite smooth jazz covers of all time and this version does the original justice.

If you like Peter White, then you must buy this album. If you like smooth jazz in general, you will be very proud of owning this gem.

BTW, I was lucky to be able to get my hands on a limited edition that came with a bonus CD contain three tracks.

The first track is a stripped down version of his early jazz classic "Moonlight Montreal" and has a very acoustic sound to it. "Danny Bianco" is a really marvelous jazz classic with excellent guitar playing. The last track "End of The Day" is a nice acoustic closer.

These three tracks aren't necessarily to write home about but at least they showcase a more obscure side of Peter White's music.

This album is a must-have.
