"Features the songs of Bruce Cockburn, including performances by Don Byron and Bruce Cockburn."
With this release, jazz guitarist Occhipinti tackled the songs of Canadian singer/songwriter Bruce Cockburn. Cockburn himself has had jazz composition training and many of his songs have jazz textures and complex arrangements. This lays a firm groundwork for Occhipinti's instrumental interpretations and the resulting album is a successful combination of faithfulness to the original works and experimentation. Arranged for a core trio of guitar, bass, and drums with guests, Cockburn's songs are re-created and reborn without losing the spirit of the piece. It doesn't hurt that Hugh Marsh and Jon Goldsmith, who have played on many Cockburn tours and recordings, are featured on the album (in fact, Goldsmith is the producer) and that Cockburn himself makes an appearance. From the wild and chaotic take on the title song to the moody "Live on My Mind," Creation Dream is an album worth seeking out by any fan of jazz, Occhipinti, or Cockburn. ~ Rob Caldwell, All Music Guide

Occhipinti is an innovative jazz guitarist willing to explore the boundaries of his instrument while still rooted in the traditions of the art form. Having released his own solo albums, he's also the co-leader of the 16-piece NOJO (Neufeld-Occhipinti Jazz Orchestra). Holding a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in music, with honors, from Toronto's York University, he is versed in many other different styles of music, including funk, R&B, blues, and musical theater. These skills and influences are apparent in his music with NOJO and on his own. You're likely to hear echoes of Jimi Hendrix to Duke Ellington to the Art Ensemble of Chicago, and beyond. In fact, Occhipinti is a firm believer in incorporating more than just the obvious jazz influences in his work, as evident on his 2000 release Creation Dream, a strong and adventurous collection of instrumental interpretations of Canadian singer/songwriter Bruce Cockburn's songs.
