Reviews of "Tales & Stories" (November, 2012)
As performed in a standard quartet setting (pianist Warren Byrd, upright bassist Thomson Kneeland and drummer Mark Ferber), the guitarist’s tunes sound like updated classics.
Tales & Stories is a pleasure-packed minor masterpiece.
Mark Holston - JazzIz
The 12 varied pieces sometimes mix East and West elements and range from the diaphanous to hard-swinging pieces swaggering with digital dexterity and mental agility. All are engaging, clear, uncluttered, accessible and resonate with a pleasant sense of layered mystery, seasoned with savory hints of the exotic. Owen McNally - Hartford Courant
The quartet explores the 12 original pieces with grace, fire, wit, and emotional intensity, displaying intuitive interaction throughout. Just let these sounds wash over you; good music can excite and soothe and this is good music. Richard Kamins - Step Tempest
Reviews of "On My Way" (2009)
Bakir's inspired soloing feeds off of the energy coming from his trio mates, with lines possessing laser-like focus. Dan Bilawsky - All About Jazz
He is definitely on his way to becoming a creative voice in the world of jazz guitar. John Vincent Barron - Jazz Review.com
