I'm not necessarily a HUGE fan of pianist Bernard Wright's 1981 solo debut 'Nard, but there are a few tracks that hit on all the Dave Grusin/smooth jazz cylinders, most notably "Master Rocker". If I was a DJ playing out, I would play the crap out of the track "Master Rocker". Instead, I play it at home on the headphones and get my pleasure that way. "Master Rocker" has got it all-nice drumming, great touches on the electric piano/keyboard, nice use of horns, it's all tastefully executed. While there some definite misses on 'Nard, the tracks the hit, like "Master Rocker", make this album worth checking out.
