Chris Mann at Smooth & Soul writes, "Second Thoughts is astounding! Albert Calvo has a very mellow touch on electric guitar - compare him to Chieli Minucci maybe - and his sound works perfectly on the bright opener "Late Last Nite". The tune has some nice funky touches - the tenor sax is very upfront and the "guitar heroes" break in the middle makes me smile. The title track is funky but with a hint of Latin and it drives along just fine with Christopher Soulos' smooth bass and some great off-the-beat playing by ace drummer Chad Wackerman. It's sunny stuff and Noel Elmowy's touch on the keyboards and behind the desk is just right to these ears. "Tombeau" is a more relaxed, bluesy song. Melodically it's very strong and I find myself comparing Calvo's clean sound with some of my favourite guitarists. Listen for Michael Rose getting' country on that steel pedal guitar. You'll be forgiven for thinking Carlton's walked in on "Fred's Blues." The smoky organ is atmospheric - my God so is that sneaky muted trumpet solo. Steve Gadd's lazy snare leaves the soloists lots of room -beautiful." Instrumental Guitar (Electric/Smooth Jazz), total running time, 60:48 - Albert Calvo @ iTunes!
