David Benoit Full Circle CD Review
David Benoit has released his most recent CD entitled Full Circle.
It's a rare day indeed that I get a CD from an artist that I can truthfully say does not have a bad track in the bunch. I'm more than happy to announce that?s exactly what I must say about this one. There simply is NOT a bad one in the bunch. No fillers here at all.
Full Circle has a pleasantly varied, mix of 10 tracks that are very well written songs by this clearly outstanding 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 from personal experiences. At different points touching on the most real emotions like love, heartbreak, pain, failed relationships and unattainable romance. They?re all here.
Smooth Jazz fans will recognize some of the players that have been assembled to play along side Benoit on this one. Musicians like Paul Jackson Jr., Euge Groove, Jeff Lorber and Brian Bromberg just to name several.
One of the nicer things about a CD like this is when the talent is this rich even if Smooth Jazz isn?t your favorite style you still can?t help but appreciate the greatness of the artist.
Listen to Full Circle and I believe you?ll find there's not much to dis-like about it. The songs are inspired, the production is simply outstanding, and David Benoit's piano work is as sensational as ever. Of particular note on this offering is his amazing rendition of First Day Of School. If you're even mildly into Smooth Jazz music you'll enjoy this CD.
While this entire CD is outstanding some of my favorites are track 2 - First Day Of School, track 4 - Beat Street, and track 10 - Monster In The Attic.
My SmoothLee Bonus Pick, and the one that got Sore [...as in "Stuck On REpeat"] is track 7, Neat With A Twist. Good stuff!

Discover the Best CD Rates Using CD Ladders
Certificates of Deposit, also referred to as CDs, are thought by many people to be a highly stable way to invest your money. Many certificates of deposit are offered by reputable banks, and in the United States most CDs are insured in accordance with the requirements of the FDIC. Sounds good so far, but one of the least appealing qualities of CDs is that your funds are untouchable in the bank for a certain length of time, known as the "term". If a depositor attempts to withdraw their funds before the term is concluded, then they can be required to pay large penalties for the early withdrawal. While a person might be inclined to select shorter term CDs, often you will see 4 year or 5 year CDs (and sometimes longer) with the highest CD rates....
