If it was possible after OUR HIGHER SELVES spent 49 weeks on the SmoothJazz.com chart, Dennis Murphy reaches even greater musical-spiritual heights on his perfectly titled new album INFINITE. Famed for his work with pop and soul greats (Billy Preston, Lenny Williams, Kenny Rankin) and the crème of the crop Smooth Jazz artists (Acoustic Alchemy, Kirk Whalum, Eric Marienthal), the versatile veteran bassist – also a radio personality who once hosted the show “Bass Trax” – explores with great sonic boldness everything from Brazilian pop/jazz and strutting funk to slow simmering blues and re-imagined 60’s-70’s classic pop balladry. Murphy creates these infinite possibilities with guest collaborators Ricky Peterson, Eddie M., Miles Gilderdale and Eric Marienthal, plus a dynamite ensemble alternately featuring Oli Silk, Sonny Emory, Will Kennedy and the late great Jeff Golub. The multi-instrumentalist's 3rd solo release is indeed a charm!
