You might or could not know that I’ve a background in jazz piano
(I wrote and carried out the intro and outro music for this present, for
instance). On this album I introduce you to about ten of my very
favourite jazz albums. That is an experimental solo episode, however
don’t fear, we’ll be again to interviews subsequent week.
