Jazz for the general public is made by Special EFX, of which the new CD Here To Stay is out. This formation of George Jinda (percussion / cymbals) plays catchy jazz; this album is dedicated to the memory of his dear friend Art Porter. The CD contains eleven songs, all written by George Jinda himself. Among others: Nine Lives Of The Cat, Heavenly Delight (Your Face), the title track Here To Stay,
… Lights Out, Unfinished Business, New Passage and Brave New World. Remarkable is the guitar playing of the excellent young jazz musician Mark Whitfield. Further cooperation was provided by, among others, Fernando Saunders (vocals), Mark Johnson (keyboards / saxophone), Gerald Veasly (bass) and Warren Hill (alto saxophone). Great trendy pop jazz CD!more
