Description
Saxophonist Anthony Ferrara for his third album here teams up again with the dream rhythm section of Gary Versace/Jay Anderson/Billy Drummond. Ron McClure who was one of Ferarra's teachers at NYU once commented on this group, "This is a four-way conversation between four men who have a mutual respect of the process of making music, always cognitive of the group effort. Had they played the Manhattan phonebook, they would have made it work."
"What is particularly impressive about Ferrara is that he not only has a mature, confident and appealing sound, but also is finding his own voice. Ferrara is also a capable composer, penning a diverse set of songs that invite repeated hearings, a huge challenge for any musician at the beginning of their career." - Ken Dryden, The New York City Jazz Record on Cold Faded (SCCD 31938)
