Even in these trying and uncertain times, there are some professional creative artists who recognize the need to "carry on" and make the best of a bad situation. Saxophonist Cory Weeds is one of those individuals. He is releasing O Sole Mio! Music From The Motherland on his own label, CellarMusic. Weeds has merged his talents as an alto saxophonist with Mike LeDonne's Groover Quartet featuring LeDonne on Hammond B3 organ, Eric Alexander on tenor saxophone, Peter Bernstein on guitar and Joe Farnsworth on drums. Each of these participants is a highly regarded jazz virtuoso in his own right, and has bee, or is, a leader of his own group. Support for this Italian-themed session (great Italian music and/or Italian-American composers such as Henry Mancini, Chick Corea and Pat Martino came from Guilio Recchioni of the Italian Cultural Center in Vancouver B.C. - PIERRE GIROUX , All About Jazz
