notes
These tunes are somewhat off the beaten track, and include several styles from jazz-pop instrumentals to lyrical slow vocals with modal changes. The title track "Walk the Planet!" is a funky, upbeat environmental call to action which insists that you "get out of your car, or we won't get too far." Then you've got quirky stuff like "Be My Rabbit," a big band arrangement of a chase scene on rollerblades, and "Hiccupping Man," about drinking and the devil, but tastefully done. There are hard-charging, fast instrumentals ("You Win, My Love", "Kajeva") and fast pop-rock vocals ("What If", "I Can Tell"), and on the medium tempo side the jazz-funk instrumentals "Luck Swallows Everything" "Highlight" and “Camel Walk.” If you're more into traditional-sounding jazz you might like "Kaz's Stroll" with Mark Kazanoff on sax, and he's also featured on a crazy little thing called "Kaz's Jump." For a slower and thoughtful mood, the jazz-blues vocals "Mountain Stream," "Can't Get Free" and “Rest You Easy” might do the trick.
In short, there's no short way to characterize these tunes, just gotta check them out in the previews. I hope you enjoy at least some of them, and if you do, be in touch! There's a lot more where these came from.
