Fresh and vital - that's the impression of this CD. Tony allows
himself to revert to jazz organ styles of the 60's when "funky"
was absolutely in and was performed by such great artists as
Jack McDuff and - more rare - Jimmy Smith ("Stay Loose"). Sure,
Tony uses, like many others, the traditional organ style, but
he brightens it up and inspires it. That's the difference why
Tony is developping to one of the great jazz organ players.
