"Every song on this CD a pleasure to listen to. "Secrets", so soft and sentual, "So Good", playful and exciting, "On My Mind", takes you back to another place in time. Brian is a master at playing keyboards and also plays Trumbone. He is incredibly talented. He has written and produced music for Bob Mamet who plays piano and Steve Cole who plays Saxophone. On this particular CD he has Gerald Albright playing Saxophone along with Jeff Golub of Avenue Blue playing Guitar on several selections. If you have CD's by Boney James, Rick Braun, Dave Koz, Steve Cole, Braxton Brothers, Peter White, and others, your smooth jazz collection is not complete without this CD."
It soothes your heart, mind and soul.

"I was actually looking for a change in my musical taste several years ago when I came across to Brian Culbertson's "Secret". I have been known to my friends and contemporaries as a hard core metalhead for life. But then again, I have a soft spot for mellow jazz. All the songs in this album are excellent, from the playful"So Good" to the title track, "Secrets". It's a very good music to relax and unwind. I totally recommend this."
A form of meditating - or just pure enjoyment

"We all have favorites and one of mine is the song Straight to the Heart. I got the album because it had that song - but I'm glad it led me to Brian's work. This is one to put on, sit back, and absorb. A form of meditating - or just pure enjoyment."
Ingenious music from an upcoming force in the music world

"Brian Culbertson is a force to be reckoned with. Not only does he master the smooth jazz arena the hints of R&B,pop and classical are brilliant. He knows how to work every part of a song in every style. He is the next Foster. Can't wait for the new one in the fall"
Some really good tunes

"I agree with some of the comments about smooth jazz. But this album transcends the genre. Whatever that means. I guess I'll put it plainer... this CD contains several songs that are just TOO good.Why 4 stars? Trying to reduce rating inflation. Its a really good album, get it if you heard a song and really like it."
