The collection's first single, "(Your Love Keeps Lifting Me) Higher and Higher," is one of the songs recorded especially for the collection. Rick Braun and Kenny Lattimore join Dave on the classic R&B track, which is already a Top 10 hit at Smooth A/C and Jazz radio.

"Kenny Lattimore's vocals make this lyrical celebration just as electrifying and just as soulful as the original [Jackie] Wilson hit. But it is the tandem playing of Koz and Braun that takes this song into new dimensions," said AXS.com.

As this spirited new video shows, their special chemistry is infectious. The video was shot during rehearsals for the trio's summer tour, which will include a headline performance at the legendary Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles on Sunday, August 23. See below for itinerary.

"Good Foot," which features keyboardist Jeff Lorber, who co-wrote the song withDave, and Koz's soaring instrumental version of "Let It Go" from the 2013 Disney film,Frozen, are the other new songs appearing on Collaborations: 25th Anniversary Collection. Previously released tracks feature Koz's classic collaborations with Herb Alpert, Eric Benét, David Benoit, Scott Bradlee's Postmodern Jukebox, Jonathan Butler, Brian Culbertson, Gloria Estefan, Heather Headley, Boney James, Toby Keith, Barry Manilow, Richard Marx, Johnny Mathis, Maysa, Michael McDonald, Marcus Miller, Keb' Mo', Stevie Nicks, Rod Stewart, Summer Horns, Luther Vandross, BeBe Winans and Stevie Wonder.

"The saxophonist Dave Koz reigns not only as one of the most bankable stars of smooth jazz but also one of the most hospitable, a point hammered home on his new compilation album, 'Collaborations: 25th-Anniversary Collection,'" noted The New York Times."Whenever jazz saxophonist Dave Koz teams up with other musicians, the result is something unbelievably special," said the Riverside Press Enterprise while Rage Monthly praised Koz as "extremely gifted." AXS.com observed, "Dave Koz's celebration of his extensive musical career is captured brilliantly on Collaborations: 25th Anniversary Collection."
