Keep the Faith

Mike has held court at the historic Smoke Jazz Club in New York for probably more years than he cares to admit but this, his sixth recording for Savant Records finds him and his Hammond B-3 in the controlled atmosphere of the recording studio with his regular band featuring Eric Alexander on tenor sax. The guitarist Peter Bernstein and drummer Joe Farnsworth - first-calls these days for B-3 dates it seems - make KEEP THE FAITH an important addition to the organ discography; one that looks forward while remembering it's roots, one that innovates while respecting the tradition.
