Cedar Walton was one of the great composers of his generation, as were Tad and Stevie of theirs -- it's a joy to hear great players explore them.

[phillcollinsjazzpiano]

But for the record, this has been such an enjoyable gig for us, we watch it every weekend, amazing musicians and fair play for what you're doing it's unreal! Thanks.

Watching Russell Hall play on Nemesis is a true joy!

[jedparadies]

Great version of You Are The Sunshine . Eric killed playing alternate changes halfway through the solo w Emmett following perfectly!

[jeffreyalexander]

Joe really grooves the medium swing tempo. I pick many teachers and he is my go to for this feel. I copy the bastard.

[martinlehfeldt]

Bring back smooth jazz piano classics emmet. So great. Love this sound, and than you add Eric Alexander. Man, that's a killer.

[jedparadies]
