Have You Heard? - Jeff Golub:
Featured on our Best of '05 Review Part 1: Edition 390 - Jan. 1st, 2006
Long one of the most popular performers on the contemporary scene, Golub's unique bluesy tinged blend of rhythm 'n' rock, has found an avid following among the smooth jazz crowd. Although he released his solo debut back in '88, Jeff didn't really hit his musical stride until he launched the Avenue Blue series in 1994. Since then it's been ever onward & upward for Golub who now boasts an impressive catalogue of three "Blue albums" and five more under his own name.

On Temptation, his latest effort released in 2005, Golub for the first time connected with top producer Paul Brown. This affiliation certainly doesn't seem to have hurt Jeff any. Perhaps a bit smoother than read more.

Temptation - Jeff Golub:
Showcased on Edition 376 - September 18th, 2005

A native of Akron Ohio, Golub's blend of blues, rock, and jazz has made him one of the most popular guitarists on the contemporary instrumental scene. He attended Berklee in Boston in the 70s, and after relocating to NYC in 1980, Jeff rose to prominence as a top session player and sideman. Golub backed many of the top names of the day, both live & in the studio, a list that included Tina Turner and Vanessa Williams. In 1988, Golub released his solo debut and that same year he connected with Rod Stewart, with whom he enjoyed an 8-year stint. Along the way (1994), Jeff released the first of his Avenue Blue Projects which primarily served as a platform to showcase Golub's somewhat prodigious talents as a guitarist.
