I have all three of Paul Hardcastle's Chill Lounge CD's and in my opinion, this is his best yet! I hope he does more Chill Lounge albums. Besides these three albums, I have several others and love all of them! I only discovered his music several years ago, and loved it from the first listen! On this CD, I love the remix of "Desire", and this is better than the original version that I have on the album of the same name. I've been reading up on Paul Hardcastle on the internet and never realized he has done so much music! He is one of the best smooth jazz artists out there! I hope he releases more music for years to come! Besides enjoying his music, it has gotten me through some hard times in the past year. I put on one of his albums and I forget what was troubling me!

On the heels of his highly successful Volume I CD, proli c producer of all thatis mood altering and vibey comes the next chapter of this songbook that you
will nd hard to put down. Nobody does it quite like Hardcastle, a man who
has an incredible knack for craftsmanship of sides that tickle the sweet spot and 'II' continues in that same tradition. This is escapism at its very best as PH weaves a tapestry of moods and ambiance that will chip o the rough edges
of life and dial you directly into the zone. You can almost feel your toes in the
water and the wind blowing in your hair as you slowly sip these chilled

handedly created niche that no other has penetrated. Hungry fans will surely
get in line to see where this next chapter of the story will take them. Pull up your favorite virtual lounger and prepare to be chilled, the Hardcastle way….more ice please!!!

This is where Hardcastle is at his very best, creating sonic soundscapes that allow you to be taken to a place where you want to go to devoid of your worldy cares, where mood and relaxation are the key components. Nobody does it better.

Paul Hardcastle, continues to create magical sonic masterpieces that have the power to put one into the 'zone'. I can listen to his music forever and never tire of it...call me a Hardcastle Head. I collect his CD's and have them all. My favorite jazz singers are Helen Reynolds and Sade, but Paul's daughter, Maxine is a very pleasant surprise. I have added her to my personal favorites list. I hope that he allows her to sing more songs in his future productions. Maxine could become the next big thing among female jazz singers.

Cutting his musical teeth beginning in the 70's when disco, bell bottoms and Soul Train were king, super producer of sexy and syncopated sides Paul Hardcastle comes out of the woodshed with back to back new projects, the latest in the Jazzmasters series VII and this a dance down memory lane with a 21st century twist.
Moovin And Groovin is a collection of disco infused pieces that recall an era where music was all about getting your 'move on' with Barry White, Donna Summer and
Saturday Night Fever casting their respective spells on the masses. You'll feel instantly transported back in time with this highly infectious romp that brings to bear all of the feeling moods and vibes that made the 70's and 80's what they were, yet all spun with musical yarns of today.

Well into his third decade crafting signature songs of our time churning out chart topping mega-hits with ease, Paul Hardcastle adds another branch to his musical tree, one that is again bearing delicious fruit.
VII, while it carries all of the hallmarks that have come to define his unique style and sound, takes a decidedly different approach, with the focus on serving up compelling sonic
instrumental soundscapes and less about vocals. This is Hardcastle's wheelhouse and nobody does it better. For those who use music as an escape from the day to day, these sides are the perfect transporting device, rich soulful atmospherics that lift you through space and time and carry you away to destinations of your choosing.

This is vintage Paul Hardcastle. Soothing melodies and others you can roll the windows down and enjoy on the highway. Have been listening almost non-stop since receiving it. You won’t regret getting this one!

I've been a fan of Paul Hardcastle since I purchased his first Jazzmasters CD and now his daughter Maxine is taking up the mantle with some songwriting and singing of her own following in and breaking out from her famous father's works. To put it simply, if you enjoy Paul Hardcastle, you will also enjoy his daughter.
