Fred Anderson, an 80 year old sax player with AACM association, still making great music in this century. His playing is both lyrical and free.

Thanks for the recommendation! Here are my new fave chicas-- 3 sisters who rock. The guitar solos and blended Latin, reggae and rock hooks are concert gold. I predict they will be the first all-female Latina band to top US charts.

It’s a fantastic song, and the entire DJ mix makes for a sublime listening experience! I’d forgotten how frequently I listened to this release in 2016, thanks for the reminder!

Cool to hear, Mark! Agree, he's a master in creating hypnotic touches throughout his mixes.

It's not available on streaming, but I recently rediscovered "Max," the first album release by Graham Parker's backing band The Rumour. "I'm Gonna Make You Love Me," is probably my favorite track on the album. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0wVHEfH0fVM
