playing is technically masterful with a sound that comes right
from the heart, with improvisations that are unique and emotionally
satisfying.”

"Jeff
Barone is an extremely talented and versatile Guitarist
in both Jazz and Classical genres as well as your more popular
commercial styles. His playing is unrestrained and right
on the money, reminding me at times of a young George Benson
or Pat Martino with lines that are steeped in the tradition
but with a modern edge. His technique is formidable but
never over the top, which I’m sure he could do quite
easily."

| "Jeff
Barone is big! Big range! Big sound! Big fun! He can swing
and bop with the best of the hipsters or play passionately
soft with the best of the mellow moodsters."

“
…..Barone sounds comfortable in his own skin, rolling
out a series of potent, tasty bop phrases that fit the groove
like well-worn gloves, saying more in a few droplets of notes
than many others could say with tsunamis of sound. Plus he
definitely swings, with flawless timing and a strong, precise
attack.”
