Totally Refreshing!

I've been a collector of Stanley Clarke's works from the 80's until now, and I must say that once again Stanley Clarke has not ceased to amaze me with the masterful way in which he uses the canvas of music. Stanley Clarke and The Stanley Clarke Band's sound paintings, if you will, are totally awesome! Thank you Stanley Clarke and Band for the sound voyage. I simply love this new addition to the collection!

The Bumping Thumb Strikes Again

Stanley has 'been playing for you for a few decades now... His bumping thumb has amazed the jazz & fusion world with classic after classic. I'm thrilled with this new release from the Bass Miestro. It's a diverse easy to listen to fun filled Jazz album. put it on, Turn up the Volume - Nudge the Bass up a notch & get ready for some FUN! Thanks Stanley - Hiromi - Ruslan & Roland Bruner Jr. This one's a special one. SCB Sparkles indeed. Cheers (**,)

It's okay... I guess

If you are a big Stanley Clarke fan I'm sure that this is a good album. However, I am more of a Hiromi fan, and while the first Clarke/Hiromi collaboration, 'Jazz in the Garden', was really quite good this one is not on that same level. Hiromi, rather than coming off as a the star pianist and elevating the quality of the album as she did on 'Jazz in the Garden', she seems to just fade into the background. And in my opinion, you don't asking a very rapidly raising star like Hiromi to play on your album to add just a little bit of background melody. While Stanley Clarke plays beautifully on this album, all and all I was disappointed and left wishing for more back and forth between Hirmoi and Clarke like we were given on 'Jazz in the Garden'.
