"Making the simple complicated is commonplace;

Making the complicated simple,

awesomely simple, that's creativity."

- Charles Mingus

"JAZZ ... It can be Rhapsody in Blue,

It can be smooth moves...

It can be Miles Davis

feeling Kind of Blue;

Whether it's the rough edge

of John Scofield's guitar

or the smooth percussion

of Peter Erskine...

It is what it is ... JAZZ!"

On stage, the Dan Faehnle Quartet is solid entertainment. Fanehnle's guitar prowess is supported by excellent musicians whose personalities and sense of timing are given generous space to shine during each selection. Faehnle's guitar work implies a rather frantic approach to jazz as he maneuvers the fretboard with confidence, precision and ease. However, Faehnle is equally skilled in the use of restraint when playing the more traditional jazz standards and ballads.

We returned to Lexington in January and I was encouraged to repeat

the Carnegie Hall performance for our audiences in the Bluegrass state.

This is a snapshot of that event. We have tried to capture the energy

of our interactions in this recording. The disc represents the trio

playing in the spirit of the moment -- a component of live performance.
