Wil Blades with Skerik, Andy Coe and Simon Lott - Jazz Fusion from Seattle

"Wil Blades is already a legend on the Hammond B-3 organ...On his debut album, Sketchy, released in August on Doodlin' Records, Blades showcases a smooth, funky sound that recalls heroes like Jimmy Smith without being slavishly derivative. "
