The Sound of Conn by George Wright: A Jazz-Pop Escape That Sticks With You If you’re the kind of person who loves music that feels like a warm hug but still has enough edge to keep things interesting, The Sound of Conn by George Wright is worth your time. This album, released under Organized Sound, Inc., blends jazz and pop with an easy-listening vibe that’s as smooth as butter on toast. It’s not trying too hard to impress—it just does. And honestly? That’s what makes it special. Let me tell ya about two tracks that really stuck with me: “Spinning Wheel” and “Misty.” First off, “Spinning Wheel” hits differently. The organ work (yep, George Wright playing those Conn theatre organs) gives this track a dreamy, almost hypnotic feel. It’s one of those songs where you find yourself zoning out, picturing some far-off place or maybe even remembering something from years ago. I don’t know why—it’s just got this nostalgic pull that sneaks up on you when you least expect it. Then there’s “Misty,” which flips the mood entirely. This one’s slower, moodier, and dripping with emotion. Every note seems deliberate, like George knew exactly how to tug at heartstrings without overdoing it. There’s a moment midway through where everything drops for a second, leaving only the soft hum of the organ before building back up again. Man, that part? Gave me chills. These aren’t just songs—they’re little stories told through sound. What makes this album stand out isn’t just the music itself; it’s also the care put into making it. You’ve got Frank Kejmar engineering and mixing alongside George, while Paul Sharp chimed in as a music consultant. Even Dale Zieger helped coordinate all the moving parts. It’s clear everyone involved wanted this project to shine, and they succeeded. But here’s the thing—I wasn’t expecting to laugh while listening to this record. Near the end, there’s a quirky tune called “Hurry, Momma! The Cartoon’s On!” It’s playful, fun, and totally unexpected. For a second, I forgot I was reviewing an album because I was grinning so hard. It reminded me of being a kid, rushing around the house yelling for someone to come watch cartoons with me. Who would’ve thought a jazz-pop album could bring back memories like that? So yeah, The Sound of Conn might not change your life, but it’ll definitely brighten your day. Whether you’re into jazz, pop, or just looking for something chill to play in the background, this album delivers. Give it a spin—you never know what kind of emotions it’ll stir up. Or laughs. Definitely check it out if only for that cartoon track. Trust me, you won’t regret it.
