Liner Notes: |
"Quite often in my life I've had to' pinch' myself just to see if I was |
||||||||||
| dreaming or truly experiencing something spectacular. When I find myself |
|||||||||||
| on the bandstand with players of the calibre of George Robert, I just can't |
|||||||||||
| believe I'm really up there playing with him. Everytime I hear him fly effort- |
|||||||||||
| lessly thru ANY set of changes, I just shake my head in disbelief. He IS a |
|||||||||||
| true 'state-of-the-art' improvisor... as good as it gets. I always have so much |
|||||||||||
| fun and learn so much whenever we play together. Doing this recording |
|||||||||||
| with him, Jon, Reggie and Peter makes me feel like I'd better 'pinch'. Am I |
|||||||||||
| dreaming? |

| "I
first met Bobby Shew in Los Angeles in the late 80's. We started |
| playing together shortly after that and it was magic! His concept and his |
| sound made it so easy for me to blend with him. Bobby is the quintessential |
| musician who has set such a high standard for all of us to follow. His |
| tone is gorgeous, his time is great, he's got it all! He is simply one of the |
| Giants of Jazz and luckily for us he continues to spend most of his time |
|
traveling around the globe performing. Bobby also has one of the |
| greatest senses of humor I have ever encountered! You hear it in his |
| playing, just listen! |
| Jon, Reggie and Peter are the
'dream team'. They provide such a |
|
wonderful feel that you just want to fly from the first downbeat! |
|
Are your seat belts fastened?" |
