Comments

Inside The Groove

Garner's pretty solo album.

Personal Impression (and brief notes)

All tunes presented in this album are recorded in the same session as for famous MG-20090 “Afternonn Of An Elf”. This album includes the ballad selection, while MG-20090 holds up-tempo tunes. Anyway, I like MG-20090 much better.

Strictly Personal Rating (to what extent I could enjoy this album)

7 out of 10
