“Spike Mason is a fantastically good sax player. The respect he has earned from all corners of the music industry: young and old, jazz, classical, folk and pop is testament to his ability to listen, reflect, and respond musically in any situation. The strength of his performance and the sublimity of his improvisations are always evident. Few musicians are so reliably able to find the sweet spot in any venue, the heart in any ensemble, the ear of any audience. ”
