Review: Guitarist Stryker completes his Eight Track odyssey with the delivery of the third volume of jazz takes on '70s radio staples. The same sense of enthusiasm still shines through in the music. The strength of the song itself remains paramount. Stryker doesn't bend the originals into unrecognizable shapes. He plays the songs in relatively straightforward manners, leaves space for solos, and lets the magic take shape on its own.
