Vibraphonist Behn Gillece steps into the spotlight and
shows us where he is coming from with his latest release
"Mindset." This exciting musical program features
Gillece's brilliant original compositions presented by an
amazing group of players, including pianist Rick Germanson,
bassist Paul Gill, the ever bombastic Charles
Ruggiero on drums, plus a guest appearance by long
time compatriot saxophonist Ken Fowser. Critical listeners
will certainly agree that Gillece's compositions
and performances clearly demonstrate both his command
of the vibraphone and his functional mastery of
the jazz idiom. With a delicate balance of modernity
and classic aesthetics, "Mindset" is insightfully straight
ahead, steadily swinging, and refreshingly melodic
enough to evoke a wide assortment of bright moments
to discerning jazz fans everywhere.
