"Absolutley one of the finest jazz guitarists I've ever heard. Jack Jezzro's presentation of Brazilian jazz is pure rapture and joy. With a deft technique fused with impeccable accompaniment, Jack Jezzro has compiled a collection of music masterpieces that delight and entertain more and more with each subsequent hearing. This is one of the few CD's I have that I enjoy the entire CD, not just one or two titles. Strongly recommend this one for anyone's music library."
Light and Listenable

"Here's another of those disks that just showed up in my mailbox one day from a label I've never heard of, featuring musicians that for the most part I've never heard of, but turning out to be sonically and musically a really enjoyable recording. Brazilian Nights was produced by acoustic guitarist Jack Jezzro, who also wrote all the tunes except one. His supporting musicians include Pat Coil (the one musician I had previously heard of) on keyboards, Craig Nelson on acoustic and electric bass, Eric Darken and Glen Caruba on percussion, with appearances by George Tidwell on flugelhorn and Denis Solee on flute. The music is light and listenable, but not offputtingly "lite," with a nice Brazilian feel to it. The recording is vivid, with plenty of bass energy."
