O’s Notes: Bassist Mark Egan leads a trio with drummer Danny Gottlieb and Mitchel Forman on keyboards. All of the songs were composed, arranged and produced by Egan who is as adept at leading melodies as he is anchoring the rhythm section. They open with “Sailing”, a cool track that sets the pace for the set. There are several standouts notably “McKenzie Portage” and “Puerto Plata” making About Now a worthwhile addition to the fusion lover’s collection.
