KEITH MARKS

Foreign Funk

2008-05-12

Keith Marks is a thirty-five year veteran of the entertainment scene. This flute player is joined by Pete Levin on keys, Donald Nicks on bass, Wally Watson on drums, and Lou Volpe on guitar. Together, they've made a smooth jazz album that, except for two original songs, is all covers. The best song is the slightly funky, original title track. While this album is a bit too "easy listening" for my taste, it might play well for a Sunday morning brunch. Reviewed by Rebecca Ruth
