I beilive that anyone with a powerful bond to nature and life,will somehow have an understanding of how this detailed musicianship is a heavenly means to reach extreme ecstacy. It should come to any given person naturally and not through advertisement or the fad of compentorary society. It is purely timeless. Like you have died and have seen heaven. Jazz does take a one-on-one personal adjustment from outisde distraction to really engulf your senses into any one song. Personally,at age 15, that nirvana that my body reached was an "out of the body" experience from listening to fine music lead me to truly appreciate and regain a deeper understanding of life, love, and destiny.

The C.D is pleasant as a whole.
