Deep into dark nights and freezing temperatures what a joy it is to take a look back to what was possibly the most sunshine filled track of 2022.
Topping five charts simultaneously ‘Dreamland’ by guitarist Blake Aaron was everything that smooth jazz should be. Aaron’s outrageously dexterous playing gelled to perfection with co-writer Adam Hawley on rhythm guitar and keyboards, Eric Valentine on drums, bass player Mel Brown, sax-man and horn arranger David Mann, plus trumpeter Trevor Neumann.
The result was a scintillating summer smash of the highest order.
