Review: PALE BOY is the debut CD of composer Seth Geltman, backed with the musical talents of Thomas Blomster, and other guest artists. It is contemporary jazz with infusions of pop and classical which give it a certain flavor that is hard to classify, yet highly enjoyable. All compositions are by Seth Geltman.
PALE BOY contains a collection of 18 songs, and each is eclectic jazz at its best! Among the titles in the collection are "Shy Beast," "Promise Me," "October Hat," "Pale Boy," "Chloe," "Ton of Blue," "All We're Left With," "Stay Hidden," among others.
The jazz listener will find this an unusual CD, creative, imaginative, and colorful. PALE BOY introduces Seth Geltman and his eclectic jazz motifs in an excellent debut CD. Nice work!!!!
