Edwin Berg / Eric Surmenian / Fred Jeanne: Perpetuum
by Jeff Dayton-Johnson

George Colligan: Come Together
by Raul d'Gama Rose
Mathematically, it would be well nigh impossible to count the multitude of sensory organs and multiplicity of fingers (and thumbs) at work in pianist George Colligan on Come Together.
