Avenue Blue/Jeff Golub

Rooted in jazz, blues, and rock, guitarist Jeff Golub spent time with Rod Stewart and other stars before his first solo album, 1988's Unspoken Words. He formed Avenue Blue a few years later to explore the softer side of blues and jazz. The self-titled release also features trumpeter/flugelhornist Rick Braun, drummer David Palmer, keyboardist Kevin Savagar, acoustic bassist Jack Daro, and electric bassist Cliff Hugo. ~ John Bush, Rovi
