Good Life

For his latest release, saxophonist Alex Graham puts his impressive skills as an improviser, composer and arranger on display, joined by his top-flight New York rhythm section (pianist Rick Roe, bassist Rodney Whitaker and drummer Joe Strasser). Besides classics like "The Good Life" and "I Had the Craziest Dream," Graham features seldom played gems like Wayne Shorter's "It's a Long Way Down" and Tadd Dameron's "On a Misty Night" along two compositions of his own.
