The new CD, “Merge”, follows in the footsteps of the CGQ’s “Soul and Science: Volume One” and “Soul and Science 2: Electric Boogaloo”. The track list for Merge includes a healthy serving of Greene’s original compositions, as well as a tune by pianist Espinosa, jazz standards by Billy Strayhorn and Johnny Green, and one tune each by Madonna and The Black-Eyed Peas.

"Greene has managed, through the process of recording and arranging, to turn the
music itself into science...[Chris] has shown that pop, rock and R&B tunes
can all exist on a jazz record because, stripped to their very core, they are
all music. What a great discovery."

"The set's got a lot more depth than you might expect, and is definitely the sort that should have bigger jazz labels seeking out Greene's talents." -dustygroove.com
