Rodney Taylor’s "Blow By Blow," is a refreshing new sound to the jazz scene. I found this CD to be nice and soulful. There were a couple of tracks that I couldn’t stop repeating such as "Ooo, Baby I Luv U", Rodney’s smooth saxophone melodies were a welcome sound and the song just stays in your mind like the most beautiful day you’ve ever saw. The title track "Blow By Blow," was a gifted upbeat jazz track that almost seems to speak to you.

Other tracks on the album such as "Just Want to be With You," and "Midnight" showcased Rodney’s saxophone skills his ability to reflect every sound from soulful to funky, to sexy, to smooth. And as they say, saving the best for last "The Sweetest Dream" which is the last track on the album was by far the sweetest jazz cut that I’ve heard in a minute.

The vocal hooks that accommodate the various tracks are clever and well arranged. This album is another must have to add to your jazz collection. Don’t sleep on this jazz artist because we will definitely be hearing more from him.
