| Smooth Jazz Sensation Kirk Whalum, and I can only | | | | CD Track List Follows: |
| think of one word to describe this CD... AWESOME! | | | | 1. Exhale (Shoop Shoop) |
| It's a rare day indeed that I get a CD from an artist | | | | 2. Can We Talk |
| that I can truthfully say does not have a bad track in | | | | 3. I'll Make Love To You |
| the bunch. I'm more than happy to announce that's | | | | 4. For The Cool In You |
| exactly what I must say about this one. There simply is | | | | 5. Breathe Again |
| NOT a bad one in the bunch. No fillers here at all, with | | | | 6. When Can I See You |
| each song standing tall on it's own. | | | | 7. Betcha Never |
| Kirk Whalum is one of those musicians that has the | | | | 8. Someone To Love |
| ability to just bowl you over with his talent. The kind of | | | | 9. Not Goin' Cry |
| artist it's really a treat to be able to listen to. | | | | 10. Whip Appeal |
| Listen and I think you'll agree that the song choices are | | | | 11. I Said I Love You |
| excellent and the production is outstanding. | | | | 12. Wey U |
