John Stowell plays jazz, but he doesn't use any of the cliches -- he has an incredible originality. John is a master creator. - Larry Coryell. While teaching at the Banff Centre's jazz workshop, guitarist John Stowell took some time from his relentless touring schedule to share a few minutes in the studio with longtime friends Don Thompson and Dave Liebman. Conceived as a duo project with bassist Thompson, Liebman overheard the planning and asked to join in on several of the tunes for some great moments. Originally released in 2003.
