I've featured the work of American guitarist Jeff Parker in this slot before (here). He's one of those musicians who clearly just loves to play and has appeared on 230 albums since 1993, as a sideman, a leader and a band member, most notably as part of Tortoise. Parker's 2016 LP 'The New Breed' is about to get the full reissue treatment via International Anthem's IA11 series. It's a woozy, retro sounding record, that takes this elderly listener back to the glory days of DJ Cam, Req, DJ Krush and similar Mo' Wax-era beatmakers.
