"That's what I've been calling "The New Music". I consider JaR to be the flagship
of that "Movement". - Bill Champlin

YOUR HEARTBREAK!!!

"You guys have taken the torch from Steely Dan
and have run miles and miles ahead" - Steve Lukather

"JaR's new album, Scene 29, is gonna' be one of those albums that you can gauge your "I'm Hip" quotient by how much earlier you've heard it than your friends. I think this album will eventually be considered the flagship of the new music. The new music is what is created after the "suits" gave up on the "biz". Anyway, I've known these guys for years and I had no idea that this stuff was in there. Well, now it's out here and we're all happy about it. Man, it's rare to play an album and still have your heart racing an hour later, especially someone else's album. Good work, guys." - Bill Champlin

"This is what Steely Dan wants to be!" - claskew1

This is the stuff a formal contemporary jazz student should be studying (and probably does!).
- Ronald Jackson of smoothvibes.com.

"I use to compare everything recorded in the past 20 years to Donald Fagen's "The Nightfly". Now there's a new industry standard for music, and it's called ... "JaR"! Jay's astounding guitar wizardry and Randy's stunning keyboard prowess is the crux of a project filled with brilliant complex harmonic compositions, ear candy smooth vocal performances, and thick transparent sounding mixes.
This is soon to be "legendary" recording!" - Tom Hemby

"I just got my copy of Scene 29 and absolutely love it! Great music is hard to find, great music well produced is even harder, great music produced well by great people is rare indeed. I am happy to be able to tell the world - all the good music isn’t gone, it’s just moved to the JaRZONE!" - Mike Hedden www.danleysoundlabs.com

Enjoy your stay in the JaRZone!
