The Path You Choose

Dave Goldberg and Duane Allen play solid, bop influenced jazz the way it's supposed to be done. Allen's guitar shimmers with original chords and tasty single-note solos, somewhat in the style of jazz giant Jim Hall." - Matt Schudel (Ft. Lauderdale Sun Sentinel) "Goldberg, displays a strong and assured tone and a maturity of style, rooted in swinging mainstream modern jazz.” - Sid Gribetz (Jazz Times Magazine) “The antidote to smooth jazz…Highly recommended, this quartet’s latest album looks to the future of jazz without digging up the roots.” - Jim Santella (LA Jazz Scene) “They sound wonderful, I’m quite impressed. They’re growing faster than I can even imagine.” - Ira Sullivan "The Dave Goldberg Quartet is a very exciting young group not merely cranking out the same old lame old." - Bob Weinberg (City Link Magazine) "Goldberg's tenor sound is full and rich; yet, he remains light throughout. With Allen's sparkling guitar timbre they lend dramatic excitement coupled with a floating sensation that connects the dots." - Jim Santella (LA Jazz Scene) "Their contrasting approaches make for some compelling listening, bringing to mind the work of Joe Henderson and John Scofield or Dave Liebman and Pat Metheny." - City Link Best of Awards 2001
