Saxophonist/flutist/singer Arthur Doyle is hardly alone in his position as a marginal jazz figure. Doyle is not content with his position as a marginal jazz figure in an art form that has many difficulties and tribulations, both artistically and financially. He still tries to find a unique path through the music’s fringes. His music is unique because of the fact that he has managed to do so. He calls his style “free jazz soul” and combines the avant-garde’s liberated freedom flight with the gritty, heart-wrenching emotion found in gospel and R.
