First Impressions (1997)
Debiut album by Adam Rafferty, young guitarist (23 years) from NYC recorded with pianist Mike Longo, Paul West on bass and Ray Mosca on drums. CD mostly includes jazz improvisations along well known standards by such greats as Coltrane, Ellingtom, Gillespie and Parker. The record is rather personal Rafferty's iterpretation and approach of jazz music than commercial and successful attempt.
