PROGRESSIVE

I felt the urge to write a small review and that is a rare thing for me. I have 3 of Jartse's albums and it is clear that he can shine in any genre he pleases. They are all completely different, from blues to hard rock and all of the same calibre. I was always a big fan of Brand X and Colosseum 2 with Gary Moore. The album "Progressive" is right in that ballpark. Incredible playing but never just speed for show. There wasn't a great deal of new music around to astound the senses in 1991, so how the hell this got missed I have no idea! I hope he will make another in this vein. Play this one loud!
