Better Days Ahead is a 1996 album by guitarist Norman Brown, released on MoJazz during his early rise as a leading voice in contemporary jazz. Brown’s warm, singing electric-guitar tone anchors a polished blend of jazz improvisation, R&B rhythm, soul melody, and radio-friendly production. The title track and “This Time Around” emphasize his melodic lead playing, while “Places In The Heart,” “Come Closer To Me,” and “Serenade” bring a softer, romantic character to the program. The album also interprets established R&B material, including “After The Love Is Gone” and “Your Body’s Callin’,” translating vocal-centered songs into guitar-led arrangements. Across its 10 tracks, Better Days Ahead captures the accessible style that helped Brown build a broad audience before his later Grammy-winning work. This MoJazz CD, catalog number 314530545-2, documents an important mid-1990s chapter in his recording career.
