Title: Unique genius sometimes seems odd
Review: I'm not from Cuba, so maybe I missed something. This CD by Mr G seems very inconsistent. Some of the tunes groove along, but others just sound awkward and don't go anywhere. Three of the eleven numbers are entirely instrumental. I appreciate lots of "out there" kinds of music, from Sun Ra and Archie Shepp and selected works of Herbie Hancock, but some of Mr G's rants/scat/vout/jazz vocals just fall short of greatness for me. Fortuneately, he has left most of the "vouting" behind.I did enjoy listening to him reminisce about people and times of old, but I don't think I would have purchased this item just for that.
Is the review positive or negative?
