American bassist Michael Manring, formerly of Darol Anger's group Montreux, released his first solo album in 1989, featuring contributions from Paul McCandless of Oregon and Coco Rousell of Kit & Coco. In addition to Paul Reed Smith's electric guitar, he also plays acoustic bass, piano, keyboards and percussion, all the while delivering a crystal-clear sound of crossover new age fusion. B5 is dedicated to the members of Oregon. It is also recommended for those who like the Pat Metheny Group. Several tracks were recorded directly to master tape by Oliver DiCicco of Mobius Music.
