Product Description What do Michael Lington, Fleetwood Mac, Santana and The Grateful Dead have in common? The answer is mega-Platinum producer, Keith Olsen.

Keith has produced over 120 albums and more than one in four are Gold, Platinum, or multi-Platinum sellers. Sales of these smash hits exceed110 million units at retail, equaling more than a billion dollars in revenue! Danish born saxophonist Michael Lington has demonstrated his contemporary saxophone chops with a steady stream of chart-toppers since his debut album in 1997. Soon after relocating to the US, Lington began playing with greats Little Richard, Randy Crawford & Bobby Caldwell and eventually segued into a distinguished recording career of his own. Five albums & 10 R&R hits later, Lington is a global touring force, most recently performing as part of the sold out, coast to coast Barry Manilow tour. Michael will be back out on a nationwide tour to support Heat upon release and into fourth quarter. Michael s new album on NuGroove entitled Heat , features performances by such mega stars as Aaron Neville, Ace Young (American Idol) and Torcuato Mariano, and will take Lington to new heights!

SmoothJazz.com Review September 2, 2008 1 out of 4 found this review helpful
Since his arrival in the U.S. from his native Copenhagen, sax man Michael Lington has become a fixture on the Smooth Jazz charts... and now, one of the strongest players in the genre makes his return to his original recording label, the newly resurrected NuGroove. Michael's consistently scored hit after hit ever since the late 90's, and his latest release HEAT will easily continue that tradition. The album's first radio single "You and I" is a slam-dunk, and it's already making its move up the charts. Michael's sound is a refreshing and accessible mix of contemporary jazz and pop rock, which has proven to be the perfect formula for his continued success. Add to that the top-notch songs on this release, World-class production and performances we've come to expect from Michael, and this one just can't miss. I'm impressed with the cool vocals Michael's included on HEAT, too, featuring Aaron Neville (the soulfully stirring "That's When You Save Me") plus rising stars Keely Hawkes, Janie Clewer and American Idol finalist Ace Young on Gerry Rafferty's classic "Baker Street." Great pop has solidly held it's place over the years as the strongest, most enduring element in American music, and Michael Lington's latest project is compelling evidence that the trend is still strong as ever. HEAT is a bona fide winner! ~SCOTT O'BRIEN
