Steve Khan - Patchwork

2019 CD release.

"PATCHWORK" continues Steve's constantly inventive Latin interpretations of the jazz repertoire, culled from some of it's most revered composers, and places Steve in a class all his own, not only as a guitarist, but as an arranger and producer. His own composition "Naan Issue," rooted in the "cha-cha-cha" is sure to be an instant Latin jazz classic, and is one of the stand-out compositions on the record. Compositions by Thelonious Monk, Ornette Coleman, Bobby Hutcherson, Joe Henderson, Keith Jarrett, Lerner & Lane, and México's Jorge Estrada combine to create an album, which is well-paced, and draws upon a variety of Latin grooves, from fiery uptempo pieces to gorgeous boleros, enabling the collection to unfold artistically from top to bottom.
