Review: Bay-Area saxophonist Zinn presents his stellar quartet in a performance of nine new original compositions and one cover, Zinn's playing is energetic, virtuosic, and passionate. The band captures the passionate energy the group brings to a live gig, creating a listening experience that "exemplifies Zinn's gift for marrying eminently memorable themes to entrancing rhythms."
