Steve Rochinski: A Bird in the Hand

Read "A Bird in the Hand" reviewed by Jack Bowers


Boston­based Steve Rochinski soars well above the commonplace with A Bird in the Hand, a well­crafted studio session that elicits a series of remarkable statements from the guitarist and his teammates. Rochinski is clearly a world­class player with immaculate technique, free­flowing ideas and an unwavering propensity to swing under any and all conditions.

Read "A Bird in the Hand" reviewed by Jack Bowers


Most of us have heard the adage about “a bird in the hand.” Here’s a variation: A Bird in the Hand (when borne by Boston–based guitarist Steve Rochinski’s trio/quartet) is worth listening to — and more than once. As I’ve said before, I couldn’t single out one guitarist from another in a blindfold test if failure to do so would result in my being shot at sunrise; but I do know who can play and who can’t. Steve Rochinski can. ...
