STONE ALLIANCE - CON AMIGOS 1977

From the thunder of their unique blend of jazz fusion to the subtleties of latin american music, the Alliance have it wrapped up here with the help from some special amigos. My personal highlight being Steve Grossmans' white hot tenor solo on his composition - Graciela, blazing stuff.

JOHN KLEMMER - CONSTANT THROB 1971

Tenor saxophonist John Klemmer brings the fire and passion to the fore on this 1971 recording featuring a talented ensemble of musicians. For me it's the quieter moments in Klemmers' music that appeals here, his warm tone and melodic lines within the music, very satisfying. Listen and enjoy.
