Express Lane and also Glass Garden and Kiwi Bird From This Moment On; Kiwi Bird; You Don't Know What Love Is; Come Rain or Shine; Shadows; Express Lane; A Simple Thank You; Glass Garden; My Romance; Skylark; Lament A seasoned veteran on the New York jazz scene, James Silberstein is an outstanding guitarist whose approach to the instrument is equally informed by blazing bebop and alluring bossa novas. An accomplished player who emulates the warm tone and remarkably fluid linear style of a Johnny Smith, Tal Farlow or Pat Martino, he also demonstrates a capacity for rich chordal voicings, uncommon lyricism and a penchant for the contrapuntal stylings of Brazilian fingerstyle guitar masters like Baden Powell and Bola Sete. The guitarist made a strong introductory statement a couple of years ago with his Impressive debut, Song for Micaela. Now with Express Lane, Silberstein shows that he ranks among the finest jazz guitarists around today.   Bill Milkowski   “Express Lane is a second great recording by guitar master James Silberstein, Wonderful standards and some very beautiful originals....” Jack Wilkins "James Silberstein is a great guitarist with something of his own to say... This is a great CD with much depth and many contrasts of mood and feeling." .. Peter Bernstein "A totally complete, fullfilling CD led by Jim's amazing and masterful soloing." ... Gene Bertoncini
