Genil Castro is a master of traditional jazz guitar. His harmonic complexity, technical wizardry and warm tone exhibits a high degree of respect for the history of the instrument. He draws from the best of the older masters - Jim Hall, Wes Montgomery, Pat Martino and such - while also stepping into the modern world with sounds reminiscent of John Scofield and Bill Frisell. I consider this requisite listening for any lover of true jazz guitar. He may well be the next great one.

Don't forget his greatest inspiration...Joe Diorio, after all he dedicated this work of art to him. I absolutely love Mr. Castro's technique, timing, harmony and feel. He makes beautiful music plain and simple. I'll definitely be purchasing this cd as soon as I get the opportunity.
