KIM WATERS – LOVE STORIES CD £15.95
A mellow set of smooth groves from one of Smooth Jazz’s most consistent performers, the title suggests a romantic slant and that’s what is delivered on cuts like ‘For Lovers Only and the vocal ‘One More’ that features Kenny Lattimore on vocals.  Try the slick ‘Hanging Out’ with its deep jazzy bass line.  Slow cover of Rose Royce’s ‘Love Don’t Live Here Anymore’ shows a soulful side to Waters’ playing.

MICHAEL ROSS – A SPECIAL THING CD £12.95 (ANTICIPATED 9 FEBRUARY 2010)
Michael Ross is a Smooth Jazz guitarist of repute in the playing style of George Benson or Norman Brown.  On this excellent album full of smooth grooves, it is vocal tracks that take centre stage.  The opener ‘A Special Thing’ is a beautifully crafted song whose vocal has a touch of Jon Lucien and Will Downing to it.  ‘Don’t Make Your Move So Fast’ has a dreamier ambience, whereas ‘Come On Over’ is a strong ballad.  Smooth Jazzers will love the languid ‘The Blaze’, whilst ‘The Secret Door’ is funkier and ‘The River Walk’ is another strong groove. Excellent.
