I like it. If you like fusion/jazz/world music - have a listen. :bravo:

Paul Hanson (bassoon, electric bassoon, tenor sax (sax on one track)); Dennis Chambers (Drums); Victor Little (Bass);Eric Levy (Keyboards);Armen Chakmakian (Keyboards);Paul Van Wageningen-Drums (3 cuts);Haroun Serang (Guitars);Mike Olmos (Flugelhorn, Trumpet);Caito Marcondes (Pandeiro)


What the amazing Paul Hanson does on bassoon -- an exceedingly difficult instrument to play and one almost exclusively associated with classical music -- is akin to what other innovators like guitarists Charlie Hunter and Stanley Jordan, banjoist Bela Fleck and bassist Jaco Pastorius have done with their respective instruments. Like those musical revolutionaries, Hanson has created a vibrant new, expansive vocabulary through a combination of virtuosity, vision and soul, as he demonstrates so profoundly on Frolic in the Land of Plenty.
