The new CD by the Chris Greene Quartet is called "Music Appreciation". Now, many folks can carry a tune quite well, but when I saw that Chris Greene was carrying the sax on his back, well, I had to give it a listen. The CD, "Music Appreciation", is what some fans from yesteryear called 'a double pocket'; CGQ is presenting this music collection on two discs. The music is bold, creative, and exciting. Jazz fans would be hard pressed to express anything but pleasure and amazement. The sound is fresh, sincere,...and it swings. I enjoy the courageous approach to, and inclusion of variegated tempos in the compositions; intriguing...without losing the listener. Overall, I enjoy the live, intimate, spontaneous performance feel of this recording. The Chris Greene Quartet has been listening to, and appreciating 'the Best' that the genre has offered over the years...and it shows; as clearly indicated in the track entitled "Clean and Clear".

Instead, know that jazz quartet creativity, vibrance, originality, and performance vigor are alive, well, and in safe hands with today's new creators like the Chris Greene Quartet. The polished expression of musical artistry presented in tracks like "Day Of Honor" will satisfy the staunchest critic, while delighting the most genuine fan.
