A tale of urban jazz at night, evoked by smooth tones.
This work by saxophonist David Sanborn is based on smooth jazz, and fuses mellow melodies with sophisticated rhythms to create an urban sound that leaves a deep, lingering impression.
This album showcases David Sanborn's rich tone and sense of melody. The rhythms are gentle, and each track evokes a nighttime scene. His saxophone is lustrous and flexible, moving effortlessly between jazz and pop. The production is smooth, and the overall feel is unified and transparent. This is a masterpiece of urban jazz that is typical of Sanborn, with a refined mood that suits the late-night atmosphere.
