Fuzzy Logic is an album by American pianist David Benoit released on February 5, 2002, and recorded for the GRP label.[1] The album reached #6 on Billboard's Contemporary Jazz chart. "Then the Morning Comes", a cover of the 1999 single by American rock group Smash Mouth, received play on smooth jazz radio in the United States.[1][2]

Critical reception

[edit]

The album received a score of four stars out of five from AllMusic.[1] An album review for PopMatters, written by Maurice Bottomley, opined that the record contained "no jazz to speak of, just well arranged incidental music".[3] Writing in the February 16, 2002, issue of Billboard, critic Steve Graybow praised the album's funk influences and its use of a live drummer rather than programmed drums, concluding that the album "allows the music to breathe in a way heard all too infrequently in the smooth jazz genre."[4] Billboard further gave the album a "pick" designation, denoting that the album was expected to debut within the top half of its respective chart.[4]
