12 tracks culled from albums Klugh released between 1976-1984. I listened to the smooth sounds of Klugh's nylon-string acoustic guitars quite a bit in college and his music still shuffles around frequently on my "at work" playlists. It's interesting to hear the earlier tracks because what we consider smooth jazz today was in its infancy back in the late '70s and there weren't many artists attempting this music when there was so much fast money to be made in disco. Klugh's work isn't terribly adventurous, but he plays what he plays and he's developed quite a following doing that. After being introduced to Klugh via Late Night Guitar around 1985 by a close friend, I purchased a few of his albums. I saw this compilation CD sitting in a used bin about 8 years ago; it's been a good addition to the collection.
