Since September 2010, this blog has recorded the journey of this music junkie as I attempt to listen to all the music in my CD collection. CDs revisited in their entirety from start to finish - no skipping tracks, no shuffle. Compact Discs only - no vinyl, no tapes, no files.

Jonathan Cain - Piano with a View (1995)


The keyboard player for rock and roll acts The Babys, Bad English, and Journey records some of his smooth jazz/new age noodling, doing his best musical imitation of John Tesh. Yes, it is as bad as you are imagining.

Peak on the US Billboard Top 200 chart: as if

Tracks: It doesn't matter.

Personal Memory Associated with this CD: Back when eBay was more like a garage sale than an online mall, I would search for "jazz cd lot" and find sets of 4 or 5 CDs for $10 or so. This must have been in one of the lots I purchased. I can't imagine that I would acquire this CD in any other way.

  1. Querstion (with an r-ah): Why would you KEEP such an atrocity? After the first listen years ago, use it to hang in a tree to keep birds from pooping on your car or something. Why torture yourself again? WHY, I ASK, WHY?

  2. Hm...I have this but have never listened to it. I guess I should give it a listen now. If it's as bad as you say then maybe I'll get rid of it. I can use the extra slot on my CD shelf.
