Ron Surace - Nearly BlueChicago pianist composer Surace if he were based in MY, LA or Paris he'd be know the world round. He plays and writes in the mainstream vein, al la Bud Powell, Horace Parian, Red Barland, Dave Brubeck but free of 'Classic' baggage. That's to say, his music is free of cliches, and Surace & Co. Don't sound like they're trying to turn back the clock to some idealized past jazz era. His compositions have infectious melodies and swing with genial assurance
