From the R&B grooves of "Midnight Magic" to the crisp romanticism of "Spanish Nights," it's easy to see why PARADISE earned the soprano sax king of smooth jazz numerous Grammy nominations. Though the esteemed Mr. Gorelick is aided here by a couple of top-shelf R&B vocalists (Brian McKnight on "All the Way" and Chante Moore on "One More Time"), it's his own mellow, highly melodic tone that is the focus of this disc. G's patented brand of user-friendly, mostly instrumental pop is as dependable as any other American tradition you can think of, and fans of his style may enter PARADISE with confidence.
