Musicians: Mark Capon, guitar. Rick Eckberg, bass. Dick Johnson, drums. Guest Artist: Ray Alexander, piano, on tracks 1, 2, and 12.
Review: Mark Capon is one of the new jazz guitarists to come on the scene, and he arrives with a lot of style and sensitive technique. His new release, THE JAZZ GUITAR OF MARK CAPON is full of great music performances!
Ray Alexander appears playing piano on selections in this CD, and it is good to sit back and absorb his piano expressions -- much talent here, much charm, and a whole lot of excellent piano work! Rick Eckberg on bass and Dick Johnson on drums add their considerable talent and gifts to fill out the selections! The highlight is on Mark Capon and his jazz guitar.
There are 13 selections on this CD. A sampling includes such jazz standards as "Cherokee," "I'm Glad There Is You," "Angel Eyes," "Love Letters," "When I Fall In Love," and the memorable guitar solo in "Spring Can Really Hang You Up The Most."
Mark Capon has a unique guitar sound, refreshingly original, sensitive, and charged with emotion. THE JAZZ GUITAR OF MARK CAPON is original, and so is the performance talent of jazz guitarist Mark Capon. Nice & Easy & Entertaining!
