Chuck Loeb Presence Smooth Jazz CD Review
One word describes the CD Presence from Chuck Loeb... AWESOME!
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, with each song standing tall on it's own.
Presence is a pleasantly varied, mix of 11 tracks that are very well written and put together by this clearly superb artist. Most of the songs display a lot of the kind emotion that makes for a really great listen. Clearly drawing from what I can only imagine are Mr. Loeb's 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.
Chuck Loeb is one of those musicians with the ability to just bowl you over with his talent. The kind of artist it?s really a treat to be able to listen to.
I have enjoyed Chuck Loeb's music over the years and in fact have a few of his CDs in my collection. This latest one fits right in quite nicely.
Get Presence and give it a good listen and I believe you?ll find there's not much to dis-like about it. The songs are both inspired and inspiring, the production is simply outstanding, and Chuck Loeb's guitar work is as usual in top form. Of particular note on this offering is his clearly outstanding arrangement and rendition of Rikki Don't Lose That Number. I'm telling you if you're even mildly into Smooth Jazz music you'll enjoy this CD.
While this entire CD is really very good the truly standout tracks are track 2 - Rikki Don't Lose That Number, track 3 ? Window Of The Soul, and track 11 ? Shed A Little Light.
My SmoothLee Bonus Pick, and the one that got Sore [...as in "Stuck On REpeat"] is track 4, Starting Over. Great track!

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....
