FANFARE & FANTASY

This is one of the best albums that I have heard in recent years. The musicianship to start with is exceptional. Yes, I can hear influences here and there. I suppose that is how it works... it's all about how you use those influences and what that allows you to create in terms of your own offerings. There are no album fillers here. Every song is strong and I must say that i have really enjoyed listening to Fanfare & Fantasy. I was really impressed by the overall sound. I would strongly advise anyone reading this to invest in what has become (early in the year I admit) an album of the year....Buy it...and tell your friends.
