For a debut CD collection, this showcases the smooth guitar sounds of Steve Briody. Eric Marienthal is on hand with those lovely imaginative saxophone musings that only he can do so well, along with Bill Heller on keyboards. The musicians play very well together, and this collection offers solid performances.

There are 10 songs on the CD. Among the songs are "Orchard Walk," "Thinking Time," "Eleventh Hour," "6 a.m.," and "Once Again."

Joel Rosenblatt on drums and Paula Atherton on flute add to the smooth sound of the group, and each musician is creative in style. "6 a.m." is a jazz treat and like each song in this collection, will charm jazz listening audiences.

A fine debut recording, one that will appeal to those who savor imaginative fresh sounds in the smooth jazz genre of guitar. This is a listening pleasure.
