Benjamin Boone: Caught in the Rhythm

by Paul Rauch

Joachim Mencel: An Eye on Brooklyn From Poland

by Paul Rauch
It is rare when an album is released by a veteran artist that so clearly defines his or her musical identity as a jazz musician, much less speaks musically to the artist's hopes, dreams and passionate pursuits of a lifetime.
