Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars One of the best jazz/pop/funk CDs ever recorded!.......2006-08-03

I'm a 53 year old professional guitarist and have been a Lee Ritenour fan for decades. In my opinion "Portrait" is the best album Lee has ever recorded, and one of my all-time favorites by anybody in the business. The incredible vocals of Eric Tagg and Phil Perry on "Turn the Heat Up" are worth the price of the CD alone, not to mention the suberb digital quality of the recording as a whole. This is much better than any of the "Best of" CDs by Lee. Just listen to the samples.

5 out of 5 stars Great album with lots of Brazilian Jazz Influences.......2005-07-21

Cuts like "Asa" with Brazilian singer/songwriter Djavan and "Children's Games" a.k.a. "Chovendo Na Roseira" by Antonio Carlos Jobim have become classics among Brazilian Jazz fans, and the cut "Windmill" is an absolute knock-out.
Fantastic CD............

3 out of 5 stars Portrait is the Best Cut!!.......2000-09-18

I've always liked Lees' stuff. Portrait is by far the best cut on this CD. Rio, Westbound and Rit I play over and over. Love this guy:)

5 out of 5 stars My Favorite Ritenaur.......2000-02-06

With Brazilian influences and talent, my favorite Ritenaur. This will be the third time I've bought this disc. It was stolen with my car once and loaned away and never returned before that. Hands off, this one is mine!
