Press
quotes:
“All
in all this music has something everyone will love”
Rolling Stone
“This
is a progressive and experimental outing for reedman
Alper. His nine piece band produces a crisp collection
of fast paced jazz/rock mellow bossas and strong r&b
compositions, propelled by a power-packed horn section.”
Billboard
‘Top Album Picks’, ‘Pick of the
Week’
“Fat
Doggie by saxist-flutist Greg Alper offers oddly contoured
disco-style jazz with occasionally free-form solos...strange
but exciting.” World-Herald
