Patrice Cinelu / guitars

Highly fluid French fusion with funk inclinations and a subtly masterful touch. Lotsa flute driven passages of percolating grooviness in the mode of The Chris Hinze Combination, Jean Cohen-Solal and Jeremy Steig along with others whose combination of intensive depth and frothy effervescence call to mind Michal Urbaniak's Fusion and the Dutch jazz rockers Solution.
