Jessie Cook/ Cafe Mocha
Here’s something from Jesse Cook. I have enjoyed it so many times on the car radio that I decided to snag it on Amazon MP3 for 89 cents. I’m not a really big classical guitar fan but this song has something that is very appealing. I don’t know if I can put it into words. Alright. I will try one.
Wistful.
What does it say to you? Here’s a review by someone on Amazon that I thought was very descriptive.
This album is my very favorite instrumental album ever! Inspiring, moving, emotional- there aren’t enough adjectives to describe the depth of Jesse Cook’s music. The music is a blend of percussion and flamenco guitar, with a Gypsy-African-World sound that is totally different from the common stuff out there. And can the man play guitar! He is truly gifted. I personally play this CD constantly, and when people come visit, they never fail to ask me for the name so they can get it for themselves. Everybody likes it! Now one of the things I especially enjoy about it- it is excellent backround music for activities. I put it on whenever I have to accomplish something- and the job flies! I heard tracks from it several times during the ice skating competitions at the most recent Winter Olympics, which doesn’t surprise me at all. The music is so passionate and exciting it lifts you off your feet and makes you move without being totally intrusive. I recommend this album highly. Take a chance – you won’t be disappointed.
