Reminiscence one of the top three jazz albums of 2018
“Reminiscence” has been picked as one of the three best jazz albums of 2018 in Swedish national radio P1! We’re of course very grateful and proud. Extra pleased that bass legend Georg Riedel got a lot of credit for his excellent playing, since the music was written specifically to highlight his greatness! Mission accomplished!
The album is of course still available on vinyl, CD and iTunes.
