or translated ... abso*uckinglutely GREAT MUSIC. Thank God for Internet radio. In The Netherlands we are deprived of such great music. Only a few well-known artists are heard on very few (ONE!) regular (jazz)stations. Independent artists like Andrew Oh (and also check out Igor if you like Andrew) are never heard here.
