Product Description
From Amazon.com
Three of the biggest instrumental pop hits ever recorded were by trumpeters Hugh Masekela, Herb Alpert, and Chuck Mangione. Botti's fourth album comes equipped with more than enough catchy and light melodies to compete with that legacy, but it will probably be "All Would Envy," one of the two vocal tunes on Night Sessions, that will help this disc dent radio and sales charts. It's a song given an irresistible Brazilian lilt by its composer, Sting, who Botti has toured with, and sung hauntingly by Shawn Colvin. Like those aforementioned horn players, Botti does put an emphasis on rhythm on upbeat groove tunes like "Miami Overnight," "Streets Ahead," and especially "Blue Horizon," which has more than a hint of Europe's drum & bass sound, and features killer keyboard work by Billy Childs and album producer Kipper. But it's the Alpert-influenced "Through an Open Window," with its rock guitars and slick melody line that many may consider the hottest track. Most of the other tracks consist of Botti's crisp clear tone cutting through the kind of atmospheric, heavily padded keyboard music that has gotten him on smooth-jazz radio and Hollywood soundtracks. --Mark Ruffin

Excellent,
By A Customer
This review is from: Night Sessions (Audio CD)
A great cd to add to your jazz selection. I really haven't heard this until I bought the cd on just for fun. I have to hit replay for all the tunes. Now I have to buy the new cd - can't wait.

All Would Envy,
By Laura Jacobs (Evergreen, CO) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Night Sessions (Audio CD)
Chris Botti might be one of the most overlooked"stars" of our time and this album is one of his best. The song "All Would Envy" strikes the heart and becomes addictive--so much truth in the words and the vocals are dazzling.

This review is from: Night Sessions (Audio CD)
I am a big fan of jazz. I have listened to other jazz artists but this album, which I bought last week, is like no other I've heard so far. This is a must-have for any jazz lover. The songs are upbeat, wonderful, and relaxing. Keep up the great work, Chris.
