Stingray Music highlights LIX

Wednesday afternoon standouts:

The Asian Flavour

• Kuai Yu Zi (Yan Zou Ban)-Crowd Lu (Lu Guang Zhong) (An ambling-down-a-country-road guitar instrumental that I could imagine Dave Evans or Brooks Williams playing.)

Cool Jazz

• Francesca-John Pizzarelli (An appealing, easy-on-the-ears guitar and piano number.)

Folk Roots

• Carolina Wind-Irene Kelley (Kelley expresses sincere sentiments about returning to a place you've missed.)
• I Couldn't Breathe-Kirsten Maxwell (Maxwell sings about a take-your-breath-away experience to which everyone can relate.)

Jazz Masters

• Do Nothing Till You Hear From Me-Ben Webster (Shimmering tone on saxophone, as usual.) 

Smooth Jazz

• Put It Where You Want It-Everette Harp & Jeff Golub (A fine cover of one of the most memorable hooks The Crusaders ever crafted.) 

Soul Storm

• Fall For You-Leela James (Movingly emotive vocals and piano.)
