Bob Bakert, Editor: Fareed Haque is a virtuoso among virtuosos… He is probably going to hate that I said this but Fareed has truly mastered so many genres from his work with Joe Zawinul, Billy Cobham, Garage Mahal, Solo performances in jazz and classical, A Pat Martino Joyous Lake remembrance, Organ trio with Tony Monaco and recently keeping the the guitar chair warm with the members of Shakti…The is an abbreviated list that is so long list almost incomprehensible.
