This could easily be one of the Top Ten Jazz CD's on 2021, and maybe one for the ages." Michael Nastos, Hot House Magazine, WCBN, Ann Arbor, MI "...And while the trio illuminates the covers, Janeway's compositions sound like classics.... a compelling and polished product." Dan McClenaghan, All About Jazz "The foundation of modern jazz, the piano trio, is well served on this release...Janeway shows a wide swath of talent and accessible bop styles. Janeway's playing is lyrical and spacious with classical charms. He is strong on ideas and delivery." George W. Harris, Jazz Weekly Reviews of Interchange: "This previously unissued studio date finds Janeway in top form and features the forceful rhythm section of Harvie S and Steve Johns. The pianist's inventive approach to standards and jazz classics is also noteworthy. It reveals Janeway as a creative force." Ken Dryden, NYC Jazz Record "His sound in his teaming with bassist Harvie S and drummer Steve Johns has a brightness and buoyancy. The title tune, another original, sparkles with an energetic trio dynamic, and the Gershwin brother's "Who Cares" has a lighthearted vibe." Dan McClenaghan, All About Jazz Interchange and my previous CDs can be heard/purchased on all major streaming sites: Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube, Soundcloud, Amazon. Hope to see you at one of these dates and thank you for supporting live music! All the best, David write your comments about the article :: © 2024 Jazz News :: home page |
