I agree with Downbeat, about Marilyn

At work I’m just listening to Jan Garbarek’s “Rites” CDs again to blend out some background noise with something not as disturbing, so I can keep concentrating.

And as always, I’m most impressed by that music, and by the musicians. The drummer is exceptional – it’s Marilyn Mazur. The Wikipedia page states:

“Down Beat has on six occasions rated her No. 1 Jazz Performer”

– and they’re so right. Wonderful music, wonderful musicians.
