The Latin-flavored groove leads this week’s 20 smoothest jazz songs, with Bob Baldwin’s “HEPnotic (Hep Is The New Hip)” climbing to #2 and Nicholas Cole’s “Green Light” holding down the #3 position.\nAlso making moves this week are Lawson Rollins, Adrian Crutchfield, Pieces of a Dream, Kayla Waters, Eric Darius, Mindi Abair, David Benoit & Jeff Lorber, Lin Rountree, Ragan Whiteside, Lindsey Webster, Greg Manning, Maysa, Oli Silk, Jazz Funk Soul, Kem, Euge Groove and more.\nPlus, Pamela turns back the clock for Vintage Smooth with Bobby Lyle’s 1997 track “Aruban Nights,” while guitarist Paul Jackson Jr. steps into the Headlining Artist spotlight with “Can This Be Real.”\nAnd keep an ear on this week’s Safe Bet: Herbert Ives IV and “She Said Yes,” a track sitting just outside the Top 20 and looking to make its move.\nRecorded at the KUNV Studios on the campus of UNLV and produced by Jason Beatty, the Weekend Smooth Jazz Countdown brings you the 20 smoothest jazz songs of the week, with chart data provided by Mediabase.\nYour playlist.
