| Dave Stryker On Your Radar Check Out Dave Stryker's New CD Eight Track on WBGO's Radar Featuring Dave Stryker guitar, Stefon Harris vibraphone, Jared Gold organ, McClenty Hunter drums (Strikezone Records 8809) Street Date: March 4, 2014 "Stryker's recordings are always hardy and reliable projects, but all of the stars line up for Eight Track. It has a perfect appeal to the middle to late Baby Boomers who came of age listening to this music. And we all know that is the best music ever produced." C. Michael Bailey / All About Jazz "A sure fingered, behind the scenes MVP, Stryker should connect here with jazz stations looking to broaden their audiences who will subsequently spread the word. Tasty stuff that avoids every pitfall imaginable, even when backing up Bread with Pink Floyd. Solid, jumping stuff throughout." Chris Spector - Midwest Record "No pretense or posturing on this one. Stryker's Eight Track is just straight up fun."

Dave Stryker was voted once again into the 2013 Downbeat Critics and Readers Polls. Besides his own 25 recordings Stryker has appeared as a sideman or producer on over 100 others. As a composer he has recorded and published over 130 original compositions. He is involved in passing it on, and was recently hired as the new Jazz Guitar instructor at Indiana University Jacobs School of Music. . One of the most joyous feels around. -Pat Metheny write your comments about the article :: © 2014 Jazz News :: home page |
