Customer Reviews:
I Can't Get Enough of this CD.......2004-07-07
Earl Klugh is simply the best. I love his music. One thing I like about Klugh is that(at least in my mind)his music never sounds the same(though you know it is him). Peculiar Situation is just a tremendous CD. Every track blows me away. The arrangements are flawless. Finally, the song "Now and Again" with Roberta Flack is a stoke of genius. I can't wait for his next CD.
The Greatest Jazz Master, Earl Klugh. So Peculiar........2004-06-08
One of the greatest acoustic guitarist in the world is at it again.Earl Klugh is a very talented guitarist and every time i listen to his music, i feel at home.The tunes in this CD are second to non, just like his other CD'S...You're the one for me forever,Earl, when any jazz artist in the whole wide world is mentioned. The master-fully rendered acoustic tunes from Earl kligh makes me feel like i'm in Heaven.I love all his tracks. Not withstanding, just check-out such tunes like,Now and Again, Forever Girl, When i look at you,Romantic Intent, Southern Dog, Private Affair and others. Earl is my main-man any time any day. I recommend all his CD'S to all jazz lovers, because all his tracks are extremely very good. If you like acoustic guitar tunes then listen to this great CD. Earl Klugh, you're the Greatest and the Best acoustic guitarist in the whole wide world.
Klugh at his best!.......2002-03-13
Klugh's 1999 effort is outstanding. His smooth jazz and acoustic guitar playing is a must have for all Klugh and jazz fans alike.The second track with guest vocals by Roberta Flack on the Klugh penned "Now and Again" is a jazz gem. Looking for an enjoyable and relaxing jazz CD, this is it!
This is a wonderful album! Love it!.......2001-03-29
Judging from the other reviews, it doesn't seem that we are all listening to the same CD! This is pure Earl. It's like he went away for a while and then came back. He was hanging in really well for a while and then it started to sound like he was tired with his own style. Judging from this outing, it's clear that he's got himself back. Basically, every listener is looking for something different & I've learned to read these reviews, but understand that they are ENTIRELY subjective and may or may not reflect my own taste in music. Basically, listen to some cuts YOURSELF, as Amazon allows you and decide for yourself. I've listened to and chosen some CD's that Amazon reviewers considered to be duds and I've thoroughly enjoyed them! Take this album, I almost didn't buy it. But in the end I did and I could've kicked myself -- it's one of my favourites! It's nice, quiet music in a typical Earl Klugh style and Earl Klugh sound which is rather refreshing these days when you can barely tell one smooth jazz artist apart from another. And, good gracious, he plays almost all of the instruments on many of the songs -- that takes talent, gang! It's quite a feat. My husband is a musician and does thishimself -- it's quite a time consuming project.
So, Amazon, thanks for allowing reviewers to have their say, but thanks even more for allowing us to listen to clips so that we can get an idea of what the album sounds like. Thanks to you reviewers who give your opinions, too.
Smooth Stuff So True to Klugh!.......2000-11-25
Unlike one superior cynic, I don't hear this CD as "run of the mill." Typically, those who can only run their mouths are "Run-of-the-Mill." After all, any fool can do this, but not just anyone can maintain a successful (what do you call success? sure to be asked) musical career for as long as Earl Klugh has.
The tune with Roberta Flack is great! The other tunes are great too as long as you don't set yourself up for failure by assuming it will be the same. He is one man with his own style. He cannot become George Benson and if he did, we would complain about that wouldn't we? Somewhere there is a win-win in here, and the CD is a win-win.
For most of the constantly critical music lovers, love is not part of their vocabulary. And music? Most can't play a good game of UNO much less an instrument! Keep on Earl! Jett:0)
