Review from Free Albums Galore: "JazzMoves and Spontaneous offers improvisational jazz that floats between post-bop and fusion. Piergiorgio mentions that his influences includes John Scofield, Pat Metheny, and Weather Report. The Metheny influence is especially clear but I think his tone and style is very much like that of jazz / rock giant John McLaughlin. This tone works best on rock fusion drenched pieces like “Point of Exit” but is equally interesting on more bop oriented fare such as “Around”. The most Metheny inspired track is “JazzMoves” and “Cat Mind” is a nice ballad effort..
