Undoubtedly this cd deserves an excellent qualification, not only for the high level of the playing musicians but also for its final production, the horn arrangements skill and the enormous quality of the eight cd songs Beatnik Jungle is the debut album of an experienced bright and versatile saxo player, gifted with and extreme tasteful talent he shows in every solo he plays with different saxos, flute or harmonica This is his first piece of work and Keith gives us eight instrumental tracks where he cleverly combines jazz and blues Some outstanding long established Bay area musicians have also contributed in the cd, such as Tommy Castro, Billy Lee Lewis & Randy McDonald, Austin DeLone, Tom Poole, Mike Rinta or Tom Rigney among others A unrepeatable album that should be taken into account
