Hiromi enlists the aid of two equally formidable players for this project – bassist Anthony Jackson (Paul Simon, The O’Jays, Steely Dan, Chick Corea,Al Di Meola) and drummer Simon Phillips (Toto, The Who, Judas Priest, David Gilmour, Jack Bruce,Mike Oldfield). Jackson had previously played on a couple tracks from each of Hiromi’s first two albums – “Another Mind” in 2003 and “Brain” in 2004 – but they had never recorded an entire album together.
Chick Corea, Stanley Clarke and Lenny White have teamed up once again to revisit their common roots in the seminal fusion band Return to Forever. On June 7, 2011, Concord Jazz released “Forever”, a two-CD set of 18 tunes that include updated RTF classics as well as jazz trio standards.

Trent Reznor (Nine ich nails) and David Fincher (Seven,The Game,Fight Club) once again together. After the fabulous soundtrack for the movie Social Network,here it’s the new music for the re-make of the Swedish cult movie The Girl With The Dragоn Tattoo,based on the best selling book in the past ten years. The music is great! The album contains 39 themes,so a lot of music. 2 hours and 53 minutes!!! Enjoy!
Despite it’s title, “Guitar Man” doesn’t feature a lot of frenzied jamming and high-flying solos, but Benson doesn’t have to hammer with pyrotechnics. When he’s on his game, as he is whether he’s crooning Stevie Wonder’s “My Cherie Amour” or gently coaxing the notes out of his guitar on John Coltrane’s “Naima,” it’s a demonstration of an artist confidently allowing the music to speak for itself.
Whether he’s swinging on “Tequila,” with keyboardist Joe Sample, drummer Harvey Mason, and bassist Ben Williams, loping through “Don’t Know Why,” or straight-up crooning on “My One and Only Love,” Benson’s sense of taste, phrasing and ability to swing remain undiminished by time.
Track Listing: Tenderly; I Want To Hold Your Hand; My Cherie Amour; Naima; Tequila; Don’t Know Why; The Lady In My Life; My One and Only Love; Paper Moon; Danny Boy; Since I Fell For You; Fingerlero.
