CJ Shearn Posted July 17, 2013 Report Posted July 17, 2013 Just got this, and it's definitely going to make my top of 2013 list. Great record! Quote
David Gitin Posted July 17, 2013 Report Posted July 17, 2013 Me too. Just finished listening to it for the first time. Quote
mikeweil Posted July 17, 2013 Report Posted July 17, 2013 I love Simon's playing - but his partners are not among my favorites. Some samples anywhere? p.s. Alright, found some ..... I like him better in a rhythmically tighter Latin setting. His touch is great. Maybe the best of all on the scene right now. Quote
CJ Shearn Posted July 18, 2013 Author Report Posted July 18, 2013 It's a great record, the rhythm section is so in tune (of course they would be since Pattitucci and Blade have been with Wayne for years) with each other and they really go wherever Simon takes the music. Quote
Larry Kart Posted July 18, 2013 Report Posted July 18, 2013 The same three guys recorded a fine album "Unicity" in 2006 and "Poesia," which I haven't heard, in 2009. Quote
BFrank Posted July 18, 2013 Report Posted July 18, 2013 Have seen him a couple of times with the SFJazz Collective, but not with his own group. Always seems very inventive. Quote
PHILLYQ Posted July 18, 2013 Report Posted July 18, 2013 Here's Youtube of them: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NXSG-Jf-7WA Quote
CJ Shearn Posted July 18, 2013 Author Report Posted July 18, 2013 I haven't heard the previous 2 Larry, but there are extended versions of a few tunes from those records. Quote
