5 out of 5 stars Fabulous Music!.......2006-11-06

Luther Vandross was my favorite artist. He is greatly missed but his timeless music will live on forever. I heard "So Amazing" from this CD on a NYC jazz radio station. I immediately had to have it. This CD is soothing and beautifully crafted. You dont have to be a Luther Vandross fan to enjoy this music. Listening to "So Amazing" takes me back to his live concerts. I am so grateful that I had the opportunity to see him in concert a few times, I treasure those memories. He would have been so proud of this CD.

1 out of 5 stars Terrible........2006-03-13

I have found that most tribute albums are lame and why not just listen to the original.This one is just awful.
But there are exceptions.
So when I first heard about the project of a tribute to Grover Washington , I thought how do you cover God, because Grover was like a God to contemporary jazz.
WOW! What an album! OK, nobody had to write any songs on this, but they all put their own spin on each song and did a fabulous job.
Jason Miles produced this fresh off two grammy nominees for his 2000 release tribute CD to Ivan Lins ( Sting won for his version of "She Walks This Earth" while Grover was nominateed for "Cameleo " ).
First the lineup is just stellar: Regina Belle , Gerald Albright, Russ Freeman, Ronnie Laws with Sounds Of Blackness, Herbie Mann, Tom Schuman and Jeff Mironov, Dave Koz, Everette Harp, Steve Cole, George Duke, Mark Whitfield, Richard Elliot, Jay Beckenstein with Dean Brown, Paul Taylor with Peter White, Chuck Loeb with Dave Mann, Chaka Khan, Greg Philinganes with the New York Philharmonic String Section, and Michael Brecker, Randy Brecker, Joe Sample with Joey Defrancesco.
If you'd pick up an album with all of these guys on it and it wasn't all Grover tunes you'd buy it! In fact you'd probably have a huge grin on your face and tell half the store about your lucky find on the way to the cash register. So now imagine all these guys playing their version of all these great Grover tunes like: "Just The Two Of Us" , "Winelight", " East River Drive" , "Inner City Blues ", " Come Morning " , " Let It Flow" and more.
I can see you smiling and saying yeah I'd buy it and you should. " To Grover , with Love " is magnificent ! It's good. It's great.
It's deadly gorgeous !!

1 out of 5 stars Not Pleased.......2005-09-26

Simply stated,I was not pleased. I thought this was a compilation of various artists as well. I was disappointed. I really ordered the wrong album. I wished I had read the comments before I purchased. This is probably best suited to be used as bedtime sleeping music only.

4 out of 5 stars Sax Tribute to Luther Vandross.......2005-09-26

I enjoyed this CD tremendously. I have always been a fan of Luther Vandross' music and this album was wonderful. It is a shame that we had to lose Luther in such an untimely fashion, but I'm sure his music will be live on for a very long time.

4 out of 5 stars Luther To Be Remembered Today And Alway's .......2005-07-07

The more I listened to him, the more I appreciated his ability to sing a song and tell his stories through his music.
I will miss him without end. Thank You for your time on this earth and for giving the message of Love through your song's.

With deepest respect,
God Bless You and Your Family.
