The Abby & Norm Group: Melodic Miner's Daughter

Read "Melodic Miner's Daughter" reviewed by Jack Bowers


Melodic Miner’s Daughter, Abby and Norm Zocher’s second album on their own A to Z label, is smooth jazz in the best sense of the phrase; that is to say, smooth yet substantive.

Abby & Norm Group: Volume 1: The Book Of Norm

Read "Volume 1: The Book Of Norm" reviewed by Jim Santella


It's fitting that Norman Zocher's “Til Death Do Us Part" lopes along as a loving ballad that pairs his electric guitar with Abigail Aronson's electric bass.
