O’s Notes: Petit’s liquid guitar melodies will warm up any tune! He starts off with “Only Trust Your Heart”, a cover of a Benny Carter tune that reminded us of Earl Klugh. George wrote 77% of the music and it is all fresh. We liked his work on “Bijou”, “Montreux” and “Off Center” complimented by Justin Flynn’s tenor sax solo. Petit plays solo guitar of two tracks and adds vocals on two others giving the session lots of variety. This is a strong effort worthy of repeated play!
