Larry Carlton "Fingerprints" Smooth Jazz CD Review

Super talented Smooth Jazz artist Larry Carlton released Fingerprints on the Warner Bros. recording label.

The CD launches with the title track and pretty much rolls right through 10 very nicely put together smooth jazz tracks.

Carlton, who is also a player in the group Fourplay, has been a force in the smooth jazz world for quite some time now. His guitar playing is in top form on this CD.

Overall Fingerprints is an outstanding release. Quite possibly Carlton's best to date. Really sensational from beginning to end. If you're even mildly into Smooth Jazz music you'll enjoy this CD.

While this entire CD is really very good some of my favorites are track 1, Fingerprints, track 6 All Thru The Night, and track 7, Lazy Susan

My SmoothLee Bonus Pick, and the one that got Sore [...as in "Stuck On REpeat"] is track 2, Silky Smooth. Wow!
