Jeff Kashiwa has a fluent if generic style on soprano, alto, and tenor, which fits perfectly into the "feel good" smooth music that he performs on "Peace of Mind."
Kashiwa's rhythm section is effective if anonymous (despite the presence of Brian Bromberg on bass) with the focus being almost entirely on the leader's melodic playing. While the music is lightly grooving and mildly soulful and Kashiwa plays well, no surprises occur and this set never rises above the level of pleasant background music.
The nice thing about a CD like this is that when the talent is this rich, even if Smooth Jazz isn't your favorite style, you still can't help but appreciate the greatness of the artist.
as smooth as smooth can get....
