Genre: Jazz
FCCs: none
Review: With his perfectly round solo and chordal tone, Cotsirilos weaves a tight, swinging fabric that is fully integrated and readily digestible. Bop, beautifully performed. Sounds like it is straight out of Blue Note in the 60s, but all tracks are original, and there isn't a dull track amongst them.
If You Like: Kenny Burrell, JC Stylles, Wes Montgomery, Wynton Kelly
