    I'm 58 now. I got to know Dave Grusin's Mountain Dance through my 11 years older brother when I was 13, that's about 45 years ago. I am as thrilled by his music today as I was then. Basically, Dave has accompanied me throughout my life. I thank him for that.

      Yes I agree with you rayjr.9187. Just consider that there´s no more option: ! 1. to listen to good music and 2. to listen to trash music. Just people with sensibility is capable to distinguish and to choose the best. And this music from the excellent artists: Lee Ritenour and Dave Grusin, belong to the good music choice. And I would say: Is more than good. Is Celestial music. Congratulations to you for this choice !. I´m a jazz --fan from Mexico City. I love the jazz since 1987 with George Benson with his: Lady from the L.P: Breezin. and Dave Grusin with his. "She could be mine" from the: Out of the Shadows L:P. see you soon ! God bless you.

      Sonny is indeed one of Lee's best drummers and he's played with a few, especially the great Carlos Vega, but Sonny makes Lee's decision to drag along his son Wesley as part of the musical tag-team is more about nepotism than musicianship. You can't get any better than Sonny in terms of chops, in the pocket groove, and strong, consistent backbeat. Go listen to recent concerts, hear son Wesley, and then come back to this performance.

      Sonny can lay down the perfect feel for the song at hand, and he can throw in those complex crazy fills but always come back in on the 1. Amazing!

    I think you can call Lee R., the happy jazz guitarist! He is always smiling.
    Makes you relax. A legend in his own silent way. Can't still believe that he is
    not rated as one of RS's 100 greatest guitarists; and yet Kurt Cobain is there?
    Ah anyway. Lee ROCKS JAZZ!

They are a highly politicized and spin doctored social media outlet, with an arrogant opinion of themselves, and a condescending attitude toward the art and artists they hold themselves out as knowing and having professional insight on. It is hilarious; plus, they've become nothing but an outlet for radical, leftist, drivel and lies, even worse. Their writers once ridiculed both The Beatles and solo albums of Paul McCartney. They suck-up to artists who have kissed their ass in the past. I love them.

    Smooth jazz always brings out the best in people. If everyone listens to this type of music, there wouldn't be so much hatred and grief in this world. What makes jazz so unique is that it can't be used for political propaganda. It brings people together and helps us forget about the imperfections of humanity. I have never seen a fight break out with this type of public gathering.
