Talented Smooth Jazz artist Jonathan Butler has released his latest CD on the Warlock Records recording label, entitled Ultimate Butler.
This CD will grab your attention right out of the gate with Lost To Love and won't let go until the very last note of the very last song The Bright Side, which is another great track by the way.
Ultimate Butler has a pleasantly varied, mix of 12 tracks that are very well written songs by this clearly superb artist. Most of the songs display a lot of the kind emotion that makes for a really great listen.
One of the nicer things about a CD like this is when the talent is this rich even if Smooth Jazz isn't your favorite genre you still can't help but appreciate the greatness of the artist.
Overall Ultimate Butler is a solid release. Quite possibly Jonathan Butler's best to date. Really spectacular from beginning to end. If you're even mildly into Smooth Jazz music you'll enjoy this album.
While the entire album is outstanding some of my favorites are track 4, Dancing On The Shore, track 5, If I Ever Lose This Heaven, track 11, Song For Elizabeth
My SmoothLee Bonus Pick, and the one that got Sore [...as in "Stuck On REpeat"] is track 2, Do You Love Me?. Good stuff!
