Title: MMW move with the groove
Review: OK, let me say that Shack Man is one of my favorite albums, and at first, I was a little disappointed by Combust... But, then after a few listens, I started to realize that this is a deliciously subtle album. It doesn't jump right out and grab me the way Shack Man did, I found you've got to put some effort into following the music, especially Medeski's always-brilliant keyboards. But it's rewarding work, because this is tasty stuff! I'd recommend this album as a nice doorway to jazz for all groove-music fans; if you find yourself focusing on the vibe when you're listening to Dave Matthews or 5000 Deep, then you'll dig MMW- 100% groove&vibe, no vocals and very little melody to get in the way.
