Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Jazz/Blues/Rock Fusion Power TrioReally excellent fusion album, leaning closer to the 70's jazz rock than many current so called fusion bands, who sound more like smooth jazz. This is real, no fluff here, just lean and mean fusion. Occasional keyboards add a nice touch, but it's mostly guitar/bass/drums (a bit of tasteful vocals on a couple of tracks). Robben Ford blends blues with jazz and rock perfectly, where other players play a lot of blues and a bit of jazz. He's more into the feel than raw chops, but make no mistake, he has plenty of chops when he chooses to use them. So does the rest of the band, restrained yet never limited. Vinnie is amazing, but not in a show-offy way. Jimmy Haslip's bass playing is as agile as any guitar virtuoso. Their mastery of the blues and ... Read More: Rating: - Colaiuta is the manBuy this album if for nothing else than to hear Vinnie Colaiuta play the drums. The amount of groove and technique that he puts forth is worth price alone. This album is a little "jammy" per say, but they pull it off simply because they are all such accomplished musicians - it wouldn't work if the musicianship wasn't there. Rating:  - A simple jam is not enough: where are the ideas?These 3 guys are among the best musicians alive. I love them. Robben Ford is truly amazing: his chops caught between jazz, blues and fusion really stand out. What can you say about legends as Colaiuta and Haslip? They are outstanding musicians and here they display some of the reasons why they are considered that way. But this said, this album does not convince me. It's a jam. A bunch of progressions, some nice vintage and modern sounds and let's go, that's it! From these trhee guys I expect a music experience to remember. They failed here in my opinion. there's no substance. I have preferred an album more focused, with more fire, more ideas, more of everything! And probably more jazz oriented. I know how great these musicians are: try ... Read More: Rating: - FUSION AT ITS BEST!This is the best fusion CD I have heard in quite a while. The songs are strong compositions, which is a lacking quality in many fusion albums. The playing is all top notch. Yes, there are other CD's out there with more wicked chops flying about, but I prefer a little music in my fusion. Jing Chi has it in spades. Rating: - Ocho estrellas...En total, 8 estrellas... Los musicos ( 3 ), El album ( 5 ). |
