Jazz Mandolin/favorites is like 50s West Coast cool jazz, played like Art Pepper, Gerry Mulligan, Chet Baker and Stan Getz, with some bossa nova sounds, but instead of saxophone or trumpet, the mandolin plays the heads and all the solos. And plays them beautifully too.
Dan Mareen has a special talent for playing lyrical jazz solos on mandolin over west cool and bossa nova standards. Supported by T on rhythm guitar, this duo's sound takes you to the cafes of Paris on a warm summer evening.
For true jazz fans into serious listening, or as engaging background music for cocktail/dinner parties or romantic dinners for two, Jazz Mandolin is intimate, warm, genuine and catchy. After a few spins, the melodies keep playing in your head and you'll even catch yourself whistling the solos.

Great CD to have in the background at the office.
author: Lee Clark
The office staff loves to have this CD playing in the background as it makes everone smile. The mandolin is an interesting choice for lead and gives a unique edge to our favorite old tunes. The choice of tunes gives our day an upbeat feel. And the price is great too.
