Title: Not consistently tasteful enough to be one of the greats ...................
Review: To my way of thinking this is a truly horrible album. He can't resist the temptation to show off on every tune. You won't hear it on the samples but you will when you get the full versions."Chicago Song" is a fairly boring tune which goes on way too long, so long that they hacked two minutes off it when it went on "The Best Of David Sanborn".There is no doubt he's a top class player and composer, just listen to "Carly's Song" from "Hideaway". But so often when he has the opportunity to be as tasteful as he is there, he can't seem to pull his head in, and plays too cute, too loud, or too much - and quite often all three at the same time.
Is the review positive or negative?
