O’s Notes: Recconect is the story of Diane Robin who enjoyed a career in contemporary jazz and classical piano before exploring other paths. She returned to the world of music performing a tribute to her late musician husband. That rekindled her flame and this debut release followed. Jeff King (sax), producer Roger Travassos (d), Russ Boswell (b) and Howard Spring (g) join her to form a quintet. Roblin composed all of the music and it is a good blend of jazz-fusion with some modern and eclectic jazz thrown in for good measure. Among the best are “Suspend Yourself” and “Fine And Funky”
