...ingredient is gusto. It has long since earned him recognition from both pop and jazz fans, and on this record he demonstrates why. In addition to guitar, bongos, bass and drums, he is accompanied by a distinctively Garner rhythm device that the album cover aptly describes as the "swinging-grunt"-emphatic guttural sounds that express his exuberance at playing uptempo.
