Review by Scott Yanow
Pianist Joe Sample is a pioneer at creating melodic and accessible pop-jazz. His recordings of the 1970s and '80s were consistently popular, especially this best-seller. Sample is joined on most selections by fellow Crusader Stix Hooper on drums, electric bassist Abraham Laboriel, percussionist Paulinho Da Costa, and, often, guitarist Dean Parks. Flutist Hubert Laws guests on "Midnight and Mist." The memorable melodies, clean harmonics, and Sample's fine playing make Carmel a high point among his solo recordings.

Reseña de Scott Yanow
El pianista Joe Sample es un pionero en la creación de pop-jazz melódico y accesible. Sus grabaciones de los años 70 y 80 fueron consistentemente populares, especialmente este best-seller. Sample está acompañado en la mayoría de las selecciones por su compatriota Stix Hooper a la batería, el bajista eléctrico Abraham Laboriel, el percusionista Paulinho Da Costa y, a menudo, el guitarrista Dean Parks. Los invitados del flautista Hubert Laws en "Midnight and Mist". Las memorables melodías, los armónicos limpios y el toque fino de Sample hacen de Carmel un punto culminante entre sus grabaciones en solitario.
