Michael Ross Quartet is so amazing. I am from the Tampa area and get to see them play live, along with listening to their cds. They are such a great band. They blend traditional jazz with fusion elements. I had the opportunity to take a few guitar lessons from Larue. He is such a great player. I have the Dog eat dog album also. It is also a great CD. Anyone into fusion as well as traditional jazz should check this band out. They are really top notch.
