The Best of Braun collects ten of trumpeter Rick Braun's biggest radio hits, plus one newly recorded bonus track. Hits like "Hollywood & Vine," "Notorious," "Club Harlem," and "Missing in Venice" fuse cool-toned smooth jazz with R&B, light funk, and adult contemporary pop for a catchy, accessible sound. Smooth jazz fans will find a great deal of interest here. ~ Steve Huey
