Reviewed: 2018-01-20 Genre: Jazz FCCs: none Review: Contemporary jazz & occasional fusion, the CD features beautifully crafted compositions and arrangements of a beguiling array of music, sensuous in every lovingly phrase caressed by the guitarist & his versatile quintet. The guitar is understated: creative without being flashy. The greatest invention alluded to is the bicycle.
