2	Embrace (2003) more music like this by Najee add to wishlist see all copies from £6.20! new only from £7.26!
3	Rising Sun (2007) more music like this by Najee add to wishlist It's been nearly twenty years since his debut Najee's Theme set the pace for the explosion of urban vibes in the genre that evolved into smooth jazz, and the versatile New York based saxman and flutist is still innovating in the early 2000s. After hanging and touring with Prince during the early part of the decade, his signing with contemporary ... see all copies from £5.61! new only from £5.61!
4	The Best of Najee (1998) more music like this by Najee add to wishlist The Best of Najee contains a selection of 11 highlights from the smooth saxophonist's late-'80s and '90s recordings for EMI/Capitol. There may be a few fan favorites missing, but Najee's career lends itself better to an anthology than most musicians, mainly because it is oriented toward songs, not performances. Consequently, this disc offers a ... see all copies from £4.65! new only from £7.97!
5	Morning Tenderness (1998) more music like this by Najee add to wishlist With an intervening Stevie Wonder Tribute and a several year delay involving a label shift from EMI to Verve, Morning Tenderness is Najee's first project of original tunes in nearly five years; despite a few tunes led by tenor and flute melodies, his focus is on the appealing attributes which launched and then sustained his success - picture ... see all copies from £3.11!
6	Songs from the Key of Life (1995) more music like this by Najee add to wishlist Throughout his career, saxophonist Najee has generally performed crossover music that mixes R&B, jazz, and pop. This particular date is one of his strongest and most jazz-oriented, a well-conceived tribute to Stevie Wonder. Najee (heard on soprano, flute, alto, and tenor) plays instrumental versions of the music from Wonder's famous Songs From the ... see all copies from £3.43! new only from £8.97!
7	My Point of View (2005) more music like this by Najee add to wishlist As lush and charming as Najee's flute playing is on "Sidewayz," the opening track of his Heads Up debut, it's curious that he would lead off his album with three tracks (including likeable romantic vocals by Will Downing and newcomer Lomon) that put his long beloved soprano anything less than fully out front. Yet even in his heyday back in the ... see all copies from £3.86! new only from £9.80!
8	Share My World (1994) more music like this by Najee add to wishlist see all copies from £3.11! new only from £14.26!
9	Smooth Jazz [Universal] (2002) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist Universal's straightforwardly named Smooth Jazz is a no-frills collection that features nine tracks by some of the style's stars, including Najee's "Room to Breathe," the Rippingtons' "Let's Stay Together," and Spyro Gyra's "Ariana." These songs, along with George Howard's "Baby Come to Me" and Jeff Lorber's "PCH (Pacific Coast Highway)," define ... see all copies from £3.28! new only from £3.28!
10	Smooth Jazz: Sweet Love (2002) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist Smooth Jazz: Sweet Love is a collection of soft jazz tracks that utilize the soprano saxophone style that Kenny G made popular. Najee's "Sweet Love" may be the best-known track here; since its release in the late '80s it has played endless times on smooth jazz radio and in elevators and waiting rooms around the country. There are other ... see all copies from £7.63! new only from £7.63!
11	If Only for One Night (2002) more music like this by Charles Earland/Najee add to wishlist Less than two months before his sudden death, Charles Earland recorded this final rewarding effort. One of the most inventive of the organists to come up after Jimmy Smith, Earland contributed five originals to the set and shows that one can play funky and still be creative and unpredictable. The main surprise of the outing is that Najee, a ... see all copies from £11.92! new only from £11.92!
12	People Make the World Go 'round [Mojazz] (1996) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist see all copies from £2.49!
13	Cool School of Jazz (1998) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist see all copies from £3.11!
14	Classic Masters (2003) more music like this by Najee add to wishlist Often considered the soulful equivalent to Kenny G., Najee brewed his own special blend of R&B-based smooth jazz that steamed up the charts beginning with his 1986 debut disc, Najee's Theme; and like his pop counterpart, he garnered little respect from critics or jazz aficionados, who looked upon his music and success with disdain. This attitude, ... see all copies from £19.77! new only from £19.77!
15	In the Mood [Capitol] (1998) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist EMI-Capitol Special Markets' In the Mood is a weird mix of contemporary jazz, fusion, new acoustic, contemporary instrumental, and smooth jazz tracks. All ten tracks are intended to evoke a stylish, mellow, romantic mood, but the very fact that McCoy Tyner, Leo Kottke, Dave Koz, Billy Joe Walker, Jr., Najee, Ronnie Laws and the Deele are on the ... see all copies from £3.11! new only from £3.11!
16	Love Songs (2000) more music like this by Najee add to wishlist see all copies from £3.11!
17	Najee's Theme (1986) more music like this by Najee add to wishlist see all copies from £3.39! new only from £7.19!
18	Slow Jams: On the Jazz Tip, Vol. 1 (1997) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist see all copies from £9.18!
19	Smooth Grooves: Smooth Jazz, Vol. 3 (2000) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist A nice collection of low-key jazz, with a strong fusion component to the proceedings. Cuts have been drawn from the '70s through the '90s, with a strong leaning toward the 1981-1985 period when this kind of relax-o-fusion was really starting to gain a foothold. The artist selection here includes stalwarts such as Spyro Gyra, Najee, Hiroshima, and ... see all copies from £8.78! new only from £8.78!
20	Tokyo Blue (1990) more music like this by Najee add to wishlist Best known for his dynamite soprano, Najee proved his versatility with this disc by using alto and tenor, and even throwing in some tender flute work on the mellow "My Old Friend." He is a strong improvisator, but you could classify Tokyo Blue as R&B just as easily as jazz due to the funk grooves (which display a similar formula as George Howard's ... see all copies from £3.11! new only from £6.50!
21	Jazzin' (1990) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist You won't find any straight-ahead acoustic jazz on Jazzin', a ten-track compilation that JCI assembled in 1990. This collection is strictly for those who like their jazz laced with a lot of funk, rock, or pop. Jazz purists and bop snobs will want to avoid Jazzin', which spans 1975-1989 and ranges from fusion to crossover jazz/NAC and quiet storm ... see all copies from £2.74! new only from £6.20!
22	Day by Day (1988) more music like this by Najee add to wishlist see all copies from £4.99! new only from £9.04!
23	Mind Over Matter (2009) more music like this by Najee add to wishlist Along with Kenny G, Richard Elliot, and the late George Howard, Najee was one of the smooth jazz saxophonists who jazz critics loved to hate back in the late '80s and early '90s. Najee received one scathing review after another in those days; some were from jazz purists and bop snobs, while others were from more broad-minded reviewers who ... see all copies from £9.19! new only from £11.03!
24	Hush Productions Music Makers, Vol. 1 (1996) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist Mellow offerings from Hush Productions. Twelve creamy tracks. Everything from the urban jazz sounds of Alex Bugnon's "Piano in the Dark," and Najee's "Sweet Love," to Sarah Dash's and Patti Labelle's fire and brimstone duet, "You're All I Need to Get By." Freddie Jackson is a prime player on three bedroom staples: "You Are My Lady," "Rock Me ... see all copies from £3.11! new only from £3.46!
25	Billboard Top Contemporary Urban Jazz (1999) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist Rhino's Billboard Top Contemporary Jazz Vocals contains ten songs that were popular on smooth jazz and quiet storm during the late '70s and early '80s, just as the format was getting off the ground. For any aficionado of the genre, there will be no great surprises here, but there aren't any other compilations that offer such well-known hits -- ... see all copies from £3.99! new only from £8.29!
