Richie Sambora – Stranger in Town

The following are some of my favorite selections.

Colors of Jazz – From Hollywood, For Sunday Morning, From Dusk til Dawn, For Tropical Nights (CBS).

A series of four albums compiling some of pop music's best songs in a jazz-style arrangement. These albums are soft and melodic; good mood setters.

Danny Gatton – 88 Elmira St. (Elektra). This is one you probably haven't heard much about. Gatton mixes a blend of ripping blues, rock and country. An instrumentally sound album that pickers will love.

Aaron Neville – Warm Your Heart (CBS). This newest effort from Neville is a soft, sexy vocal album featuring duets with Linda Ronstadt. There are a couple of songs that just don't seem to fit the mood of the album, but overall, it is pleasingly diverse.

Bonnie Raitt – Luck of the Draw (Capitol). Probably the best Bonnie Raitt ever. This album features bluesy soul, funk and a couple of real tear-jerking ballads. A perfect follow-up to the incredible Nick of Time.
