The record is absolutely brilliant in terms of compositional sophistication, originality and serious "chops." There’s nothing like it out there (kinda like the "real" star of Jupiter!).

Roll Tide Dec 13 2012 at 12:34 PM	He provides the guitar solo on the new Donald Fagen album, song called P"lanet D’Rhonda." For those who don’t know

Your reviews are very helpfull when one only has digital downloads of the music.I like the mention of the supporting players (pianist Aaron Parks and bassist Eric Revis) as I have the James Farm recording and also Branford Marselis’ A Love Supreme. I have The Enemies of Energy so I can relate there also.

thehague Dec 06 2012 at 5:12 AM	I’m sure dgaw59 meant no contest but that Pat’s not the only magnificent one out there. Kurt is in his league certainly.
naut Dec 05 2012 at 10:38 PM	I look forward to hearing this. I’ve always liked Kurt’s stuff. I also want to see Orchestrion, but I’m not sure which version to seek out.
hman01 Dec 04 2012 at 10:44 AM	Good point "mightymouse". I listen to Pat and Kurt.But,for different reasons.Because their music is totally different.To me,anyway.
mightymouse Dec 03 2012 at 4:08 PM	music is not a competition
HAMBONE Dec 03 2012 at 12:35 PM	I concur. Kurt has definitely raised the level of his playing over the years and is a serious contender.And he’s a Philly guy, which is good to hear for all of us localites!
