A fine piece of smooth jazz that resonates with sophistication and openness.
A calm and melodic fusion piece built around keyboards. Smooth rhythms and clear sounds combine to create a piece that evokes both the tranquility and warmth of the city.
The lustrous tones of the synthesizer and the soft sounds of the piano blend naturally, creating a pleasant, floating feeling. Nathan East's bass and Harvey Mason's rhythms smoothly support the groove, creating a warm sense of unity throughout. The melody is clear, and deep emotion flows within a gentle tempo. The arrangement is meticulous yet spacious, creating an impressive sense of tranquility reminiscent of a city night view. This is a masterpiece of smooth jazz that combines relaxation and refinement, demonstrating Bob James's maturity.
