As Chad Taylor puts it, “every time I hear Rob I have the same reaction — who is this guy? He has such a command of his instrument and such original ideas. Rob is the only saxophonist I know who can pick up his horn right out the case and perform at 100 percent. There is no warming up!  No searching for the right reed! He’s one of the most powerful performers I’ve ever worked with.” Sometimes you have to dig around “in the cracks” to find beautiful music and beautiful people. Clifford Allen
