ByClick the play button to listen
We all know "smooth jazz" is a forbidden genre among hard-core jazzbos, but sometimes you run across albums that have no interest in pandering to the listener, but also don't display any rough edges or dirty elbows. Call it "polished," "refined," "plush," or "mellow"but don't file it next to Kenny Gor Albert Ayler, for that matter.Playlist
