1	Dream Steppin' (2001) more music like this by Mark Elf On his tenth album, guitarist Mark Elf fronts sort of a virtual quartet consisting of himself on lead and overdubbed rhythm guitar, backed by bassist Neal Minor and drummer Lewis Nash. The program consists primarily of original compositions, with a couple of standards and a unique but tasteful arrangement of "America" thrown in as well. The ... see all copies from $3.49! new only from $13.33!
2	Liftoff (2006) more music like this by Mark Elf Mark Elf's 11th release for his Jen Bay label is a lively studio affair. Joined by some of New York's most in-demand session musicians, including pianist David Hazeltine (who has extensively recorded on his own), bassist Peter Washington, and drummer Lewis Nash, the guitarist kicks off with his explosive "Liftoff," a miniature reworking of John ... see all copies from $4.75! new only from $12.97!
3	Trickynometry (1997) more music like this by Mark Elf This is a particularly interesting program by boppish guitarist Mark Elf. The date starts out strong (with "Trickynometry" and "Dot Com Blues"), featuring a quintet that includes trumpeter Nicholas Payton, and one regrets that Payton is only on one of the remaining ten numbers. In addition to Elf (who is in top form), the musicians include Bobby ... see all copies from $4.00! new only from $4.00!
4	Glad to Be Back (2004) more music like this by Mark Elf The New York-based electric jazz guitarist's success over the years has shown the industry the power of the indie to overcome all usual obstacles. And then came some two much harder hits for Mark Elf to overcome -- a kidney disorder in 2002 and prostate cancer in 2003. While the liner notes, song titles, and written dedications speak of his ... see all copies from $12.97! new only from $12.97!
5	Over the Airwaves (2000) more music like this by Mark Elf Elf's latest recording is mostly comprised of standards, but four of the cuts are originals dedicated to jazz radio programmers -- thus the title. The guitarist is appeciative of the help he has received exposing his music, and these tunes are the first wave of several he hopes to write for these dedicated broadcasters. Not that he'd have trouble ... see all copies from $13.33! new only from $13.33!
6	Swingin' (2001) more music like this by Mark Elf This inventive electric jazz guitarist has had the great fortune to release eight CDs on his own label, without any need to concern himself with corporate dictation or airplay necessities -- and, in so doing, has been a huge hit on the Gavin radio charts. Freedom is what jazz is all about, and Elf's trio (which includes bassist Robert Hurst and ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $13.64!
7	We Remember Tal: A Tribute to Tal Farlow (1999) more music like this by Various Artists As a memorial to the much-revered Tal Farlow, guitarist/producer Mark Elf rounded up a sextet of like-minded guitarists (including Elf himself) for a sleek, lively session of solo numbers, duets and a quartet. Elf's guest guitarists include Peter Bernstein, Gene Bertoncini, Randy Johnston, Mundell Lowe and Jack Wilkins -- and though none overtly ... see all copies from $6.95! new only from $12.85!
8	A Minor Scramble (1996) more music like this by Mark Elf Mark Elf's third self-produced CD is another gem. The guitarist's trio selections, with bassist Peter Washington and drummer Louis Nash, include a snappy miniature arrangement of "After You've Gone," a rarely heard ballad by Harold Arlen, "It Is Written in the Stars," and his bluesy original title track. Elf's guests include the young trumpet star ... see all copies from $6.85! new only from $17.23!
9	New York Cats (1999) more music like this by Mark Elf Guitarist Mark Elf's fifth recording showcases his talents in a trio setting with bassist Jay Leonhart and drummer Dennis Mackrel, who lift the leader's jazz fervor to new heights. Without another melodic foil, the pressure is on Elf to keep the music interesting and active, which he does in spades. Elf wrote five of the 12 selections. "The ... see all copies from $4.45! new only from $4.45!
10	Live at Small's (2000) more music like this by Mark Elf After putting out a series of studio-recorded CDs during the 1990s that received a lot of airplay on jazz radio stations, Mark Elf finally released his first live CD. The guitarist is in excellent form throughout, joined by bassist Neal Miner and drummer Joe Strasser. Elf's driving take of Horace Silver's "Quicksilver," a rapid-fire "52nd Street ... see all copies from $18.45! new only from $18.45!
