Boney James "Pure" Smooth Jazz Music CD Review

One word describes the CD Pure from Boney James... AWESOME!

PURE is the ninth Warner Bros. release from smooth jazz sax man Boney James and marks his debut as his own producer. Co-writing every song on the CD, and playing a variety of instruments as well. Saying on his website, \"The great joy of PURE is that I made all the decisions about everything.\"

Listening to this CD makes it easy to see why fans flock in droves to Boney\'s yearly concert tour.

Those who listen to this CD will find there\'s not much to dis-like about it. It launches with the very nice title track, Pure and from there James proceeds to display why he is considered one the greatest smooth jazz artists of our time as he mixes his signature style throughout the CD.

These days it\'s a very rare CD on which every single song is good or better than the one before it. This CD is certainly one of those rare CDs.

Overall Pure is an outstanding release. Quite possibly Boney\'s best to date.

Pure sensuality. Pure grooves. Pure pleasure.

How about pure gold from beginning to end.

A must have for the smooth jazz fan.

While this entire CD is outstanding the truly standout tunes, and SmoothJazz247.com favorites are Better With Time [track 2], 2:01 AM [track 3], and You Dont Have To Go Home [track 10]. My SmoothLee Bonus Pick, and the one that got Sore [...as in \"Stuck On REpeat\"] is track 1, Pure. Good stuff!
