Just over a year removed from his debut, the same maturity and dedication to his craft that made him a phenomenon is evident in his remarkable evolution on his sophomore release, COUNTDOWN. Joey now steps forward as a composer, while still paying tribute to the jazz greats (Coltrane, Monk, Strayhorn).
