Inside The Groove

Talented arranger Ralph Burns' series of tracks most of which has full of tensions.

Personal Impression (and brief notes)

Ralph Burns himself calls this album as “musical skethces”, “random thoughts, little melodies I found myself humming”. He also says some of the tracks are jazz tunes and some are not.

Very tensional, musical and experimental expressions of music, although it's not an ordinary Jazz kind. Very interesting arrangements.

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

7 out of 10
