ABOUT BRIAN LYNCH:
This is the end of the century, and a lot of music has gone down, Brian Lynch said several years ago. I think that to be a straight-ahead jazz musician now means drawing on a wider variety of things than 30 or 40 years ago. Not to play a little bit of this or a little bit of that, but to blend everything together into something that sounds good. It doesnt sound like pastiche or shifting styles; its people with a lot of knowledge.
