Smooth Jazz veterans, pianist David Benoit and guitarist Marc Antoine collaborate on ‘So Nice’ to record a set that lives up to its title. If you like instrumental Smooth Jazz with a distinct spin and theme then ‘So Nice’ will delight with its Bossa Nova approach. Tunes such as ‘French Café’ and ‘Café Au Lait Bentley’ glide effortlessly with an easy grace. The Bossa influence is strongest on ‘So Danco Samba’, the jazzier ‘So Nice’ and to a lesser degree the catchy ‘Rio Deluxe’. ‘Algarve’ concludes a fine Smooth Jazz set with an Iberian feel. Antoine’s playing is as always engaging and seductive whilst Benoit’s is solid.
