David Garfield is back with Sweetness, a song that will make you move. David enlists the talents of Gerald Albright & Rick Braun who bring their distinctive sound to this track. Sweetness (Creachy Records) features a who’s who when it comes to musicianship: Paul Jackson Jr., “Ready” Freddie Washington, and Toto’s Lenny Castro. This smooth groove is perfect whether sheltered in place or moving freely. I believe this is one we’ll be hearing well into the summer and that’s why it was added to Jazz 91.9 WCLK, especially during Serenade To The City, Monday-Friday nights at 10pm. Let me know if you agree at dlinton@cau.edu @thelintonkid @jazz919wclkatl
