"THE BEST OF G. FUSTON"
Review by Peter Su "CIMRADIO.COM"

Some of the best smooth jazz recordings are found on this greatest compilation by Oklahoma City based producer and composer, Gary Fuston. The Best Of G. Fuston features beat heavy styles influenced mainly by hiphop. One of the more recommended tracks is Day After, which is a 100% radio ready song and features a brilliant and cool chorus section. Gary Fuston not only has hiphop in mind, but some tracks like Passion For Pleasure are more atmospheric oriented and is comparable to some of the soundtrack of Final Fantasy VIII. Another blend of smooth guitar and cool beats can be found on The A.M. Drive. Other smooth favorites from this greatest collection are When I Get There, In The Moment and Fade To Bass. If you're looking for pure 100% upbeat and cool instrumental music, then this is the CD you'll really want. Wouldn't be surprised if Gary signed on to a major recording label.

Comentary quotes from Ted Hasiuk's show
On Café Jazz, Canada's Smooth Jazz Connection
Heard It Before - Gary Fuston: Fuston has been involved in production work for the past 15 years or so, although his passion for music goes back much further. As a student he took up drums, percussion, & guitar. In the late 70's he was part of an R&B group and shortly thereafter he became interested in learning the engineering side of recording. In that connection, he set up his own studio and over the years has produced many artists from a variety of genres. In 1999, he introduced his own music online which resulted in over a million downloads and streams and the start of a worldwide fan base. His latest album titled the Best of G. Fuston, is a collection of 15 tracks from two previous releases on mp3.com which are no longer available to listeners. The music is a blend of acid jazz, jazz fusion, and smooth jazz and features guitar, strings, and piano layered with danceable grooves and rhythmic melodies.

  • CD full of smoothness
    author: ron/wash., dc

    I heard the Unwind cd so you know I had to get the best of G. Fuston. This is some serious smooth jazz here

  • Smooth, sensuous & relaxing as sleeping on silk sheets!
    author: RedKool-Aid

    I am more than happy with the smoothness of Gary's flavor! Jazz simply does not get any finer. The seasoned, veteran in touch edge of all the compositions and flow of the tracks felt soooo good! My favorite is LOVE HABIT, which is exactly what I have developed for this whole CD. A must have for any Jazz collection library.

  • This guy is hot. He needs to go main stream.
    author: Joseph Coleman

    This disc is one of the best that I have heard. In the Moment is my favorite. I know that artist don't like it when their music is compared to other artist, but sometimes the comparison is a compliment. Move over Norman Brown, Chris standring and you other Badd ass guitarist; Gary Fuston is moving in.

  • Gary Fuston here builds on his extreme talents
    author: Smother.net

    Gary Fuston here builds on his extreme talents at creating the perfect smooth jazz song with some additional contemporary pieces to delight to. Without a doubt there is a tremendous correlation between these songs and what’s delighting hip-hop music heads lately. Beatwise it’s structured and layered well overtop of dynamic sleek guitar play and bass heavy tones. Great rhythm and superb melodies are just what the doctor of jazz ordered up and Gary’s got all the right spices. - J-Sin

  • Nice cd it's off the hook...
