Avenue Blue's Naked City is a laid-back, mellow jazz and soul fusion, highlighted by blues flourishes. The main distinguishing feature of the group is guitarist Jeff Golub, whose fluid playing dominates the record, even when he is accompanying such guest stars as Phoebe Snow and Bob James. ~ David Jehnzen

Average Rating: (4 out of 5 stars) 4 stars

4 stars A durable part of your collection
I bought this thing 10 years ago because I was in some kinda record club. I was busy. I didn't send in the card (or whatever) and it came. I knew nothing about it. Not only was I blown away then, 10 years later I am still blown away. I play this for friends and they, without exception, love it. Now... not all the songs do it for me. However, the ones that do, continue to do so. This may not be the greatest album in the world (I don't know what that would be anyway), but this is very, very good. It has the kind of jazz-funk that that eshews trendiness. This just IS. Buy it. You won't regret it.

Jeff Golub Out Of The Blue CD  (1999)

CD $9.29  3 stars Top 500 Audio Samples
Jeff Golub is categorized in the smooth jazz genre because he's an instrumentalist; at heart, though, he's an Eric Clapton styled rockin' blues guitar player who, on Out of the Blue, finds himself stumbling happily into Tower of Power-like jam sessions. He pulls no punches from the start, rocking hard and furious with his distorted electric thrust darting around and over Ricky Peterson's brooding B-3 and a three-piece horn section on "Wanna Funk?" Same idea, south of the border style, on the similarly hard-hitting Latin blues hurricane "Manteca," where Golub explores some improvisational territory in between sizzling solo sections by his longtime friend Rick Braun. Golub co-produced the album with keyboardist Philippe Saisse, whose comparatively laid-back style keeps Golub in the cool on more mid-tempo, easy to ...

Jeff Golub Avenue Blue CD  (1994)

Naked City music CDs
CD $9.29  5 stars Top 500 Audio Samples
It seems like ages since record companies had actual house producers, but Mesa-Bluemoon's Rick Braun seems to be gracing some of the label's most engaging projects these days. First came Willie & Lobo's worldbeat finesse, and now Avenue Blue featuring Jeff Golub, a snappy, fluid guitarist who takes the sharp lilt of Steve Laury into fascinatingly cool textures ranging from hip-hop to atmospheric new age with just enough jazz tradition infused to cross genres. It's a credit to Golub, in fact, that his wide palette of original compositions ring truer than do surefire soul covers like "Pick Up the Pieces" or "I'll Be Around." Braun (who adds his own trumpet flair) allows the sure-fisted Golub to be the star here, keeping the moods potent but slightly understated, even on the Tower of Power-like ...
