O’s Notes: Steve Khan is dedicated to expanding the role of guitar in Latin jazz and“Patchwork“is his 4th title focused on this task. Khan’s work is pleasurable and precise on ‘Bouquet‘ a fine example of his guitar prowess throughout the session. Bassist Ruben Rodriguez lays down a cool, calypso beat for ‘Naan Issue‘. We also enjoyed the percussive work by Marc QuiÐones and drummer Dennis Chambers on ‘A Shade of Jade‘. Rob Mounsey plays keyboards and keeps everything together, There are nine tunes that are embraceable, energetic, and on point.
