What is the general "buzz" on this cat? I am of the opinion that he is the man right now on the scene, and he deserves more acclaim than he is presently receiving! I have heard "Sasha" many, many times with the Mingus Big Band and own a few of his recordings both as a leader and sideman. A brilliant improviser ( very modern via Woody), great technique, sweet sound in ALL registers, and he makes it look (& sound) so effortless.
