I'm sure many of you have listened to this before, so please excuse the enthusiasm of this beginner! I have just come across this by Markku Lepista and was spellbound, so I thought I would share it. Enjoy!

You can download several of his albums from iTunes.  One of the most skillful and inventive players on the scene.  Plays some impressive CBA as well

Couldn't agree more - and you can listen to him on Spotify too, before you buy.

I was lucky enough to come across him at a concert in London recently without having any idea of who I was going to see - I hardly know what I'm talking about but I thought he was absolutely brilliant! One of the musicians who has inspired me to start learning...

I've missed the fella twice in Helsinki, and (2 years ago) at a Spanish enclave at the top of the Pyrenees - my old Ford's clutch only went at the end of my Basque expedition  :-\  So you Londoners are pretty lucky - ! wish someone had tipped me off though  :P

There's an interesting discussion (in Italian) of the piece here http://www.fisacromatica.net/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=7178
