O’s Notes: It is tough not to like the songs of the late Grover Washington Jr., one of the pioneers in putting jazz improvisation on top of popular music. His sax attack spawned numerous hits on R&B, jazz, NAC and pop charts. Jason Miles presents this collection of some of Grover’s hits performed by the best on today’s jazz scene. Among the stars contributing are Gerald Albright (sax), Ronnie Laws (sax), Russ Freeman (g), Dave Koz (sax), Regina Belle (vocals), George Duke (keyboards), Chuck Loeb (g), Jay Beckenstein (sax), Mark Whitfield (g) and Richard Elliot (sax). Fourteen strong songs: just sit back and enjoy them!
