Editorial Reviews
Howard Myint, SF Bay Guardian-December, 1997
"...Easy grooves and smooth roots-rock sensibility... (Ben Graves) delivers incisive observations on the everyday in a honeyed voice."
Neil Fagan, Performing Songwriter-August, 1998
"...his melodies are consistently fresh and inventive... (Crazy Italians) should... please anyone else who enjoys intelligent pop music."
Album Description
Tight, "intelligent" trio jazz-pop. "Princess Grace," selected as one of Performing Songwriter Magazines top 12 independently released tracks on their annual CD compilation, is an acoustic jazz/funk homage to the late Grace Kelly, while "Crazy Italians" addresses international prejudices lyrically, to an acoustic guitar driven groove. Lots of variety and musicianship, with influences from bluegrass to straight-ahead jazz and R&B.
