A swinging alto-saxophonist with a beautiful tone, Mike Dubaniewicz is thus far best known for his playing with the late Maynard Ferguson's Big Bop Nouveau Band. "Drive Time" is his highly enjoyable debut recording as a leader and shows off his improvising skills in several styles with the foundation being straightahead jazz.
