I have his CD. It's kind of interesting. The guy does not know anything about how to play. He doesn't know even the most basic AB pedal licks. He is approaching the instrument with the attitude of "what can I make this thing do?"

I have to say though that I don't really like the CD. His ignorance of the instrument really shows. I think Chas Smith and Bruce Kaphan are mining the same territory with far greater success.
