The saxophonist’s cross cultural musical mastery is clearly evident on “Spirit and Spice,” an exotic eight tune collection that is entertaining, sophisticated and awfully tasty.

Recorded and engineered by Joel Jaffe at Sausalito’s Studio D, “Spirit and Spice” features some of the finest musicians in jazz and global fusion such as  tabla virtuoso Zakir Hussain, drummer Steve Smith, bassist Kai Eckhardt,  guitarist Fareed Haque and Frank Martin on piano.
