The soulful, sunny Fire Sign released today on singer-saxophonist Braxton Cook's 29th birthday has got lots of positive reaction on social media. Twitter user @DigitalMayne for instance tweets: ''Listened all the way through and it's in my album of the year running already. We need this good jazz in these crazy times.'' Another, @CourageousLove_, says Cook is ''the baddest alto sax player in the land''. Groove for lovers all the way, 'Moonchild' is our pick so far.
