Synopsis

Product Description

This is music for living with, easy listening jazz (with none of the pejorative connotations of that phrase), performed by a master music story teller and quintessential clarinetist with his favorite musical group of two guitars (Howard Alden and Bucky Pizzarelli), bass (Greg Cohen) and drums (Tony DeNicola). A sequel tot he award-winning Breezin' Along (1970) performed with the same cast.

CD Reviews

Great clainet and guitar combo

07/08/1999

(5 out of 5 stars)

"Ken Davern is one of the purest clarinet players I've heard since Benny Goodman. He is great! Also, it sounds like Howard Alden on the 7 string guitar on the preview. If it is, you are in for a real treat with this C.D. They were at the Jazz Festival in Elkhart, Indiana the last weekend of June. They were simply marvelous. If you like this type of jazz, you will love them."
