After having played concerts, festivals and parties as a soloist in recent years with many of the top jazz players in the world, Dan Barrett has hand picked a band out of his favorites among them. The result is Blue Swing, a collection of brilliant individuals who have developed the cohesion and that rare combination of relaxation and precision achieved only by the great jazz organizations. "If this CD doesn't earn them a solid place on the new-millennial jazz scene, we«re in trouble."

—Jim Leigh, a novelist and journalist whose monthly column "West Coasting" appears in the Mississippi Rag.
