This Nashville resident has tons of professional experience. If you watch television, you’ve probably heard him. He’s composed and/or performed theme music for just about every national television newscast. He’s done numerous TV series such as LA Law, Tonight Show, Murphy Brown, and Star Trek Voyager. He’s also toured with Diana Ross, Gladys Knight, Pat Methany, and Stan Getz to name a few. Now, he’s put together a talented group of musicians and made a classic jazz album. His fine piano playing is featured in the upbeat track entitled, “Think Again”. George Tidwell plays a mean trumpet and Jim White has a fine touch on the high hat in the title track. This is all in all a fine contemporary jazz album. Reviewed by Rebecca RuthCilantro Boombox
