Nelson Rangell "Look Again" Smooth Jazz Music CD Review

Very talented Smooth Jazz artist Nelson Rangell has released his latest CD titled Look Again and Wow! It's good.

The CD launches with an outstanding track, Look Again, that I suspect will be heard on radio stations everywhere, and deservedly so. It really is a very nice track.

Look Again has a pleasantly varied, mix of 11 tracks that are very well written songs by this clearly superb artist. Most of the songs display a lot of the kind emotion that makes for a really great listen. Seemingly drawing from what I can only imagine are his own real life experiences. At different points touching on the most real emotions of love, and the pain of failed relationships can certainly be heard.

Overall Look Again is a solid release. Quite possibly Nelson Rangell's best to date. Really spectacular from beginning to end. If you're even mildly into Smooth Jazz music you'll enjoy this album.

My SmoothLee Bonus Pick, and the one that got Sore [...as in "Stuck On REpeat"] is track 6, Long Walk. Great track!
