"Since arriving in London in 1999, tenorist Renato D'Aiello has been treating listeners to melodic, straight-ahead jazz that radiates the warmth of his native Naples. Steeped in such neglected post-bop masters as Hank Mobley and Dexter Gordon, he avoids empty technical displays. Instead, his solos tell a story. Their lines unfold with a natural flow, especially on the ballads..." Jack Massarick Sound samples and other info at www.myspace.com/renatodaiello
