Title: He's back, brilliant and introspective
Review: After a multi-year hiatus from recording with the Fort Apahe Band (at their peak, one of the best working bands in jazz) Jerry G's back with an introspective and stripped-down work.Recording in New York and Madrid with Spanish musicians mostly unknown to jazz fans, he has produced one of the most compelling Flamenco/jazz fusions since Miles' "Sketches". He's absorbed Monk and Bird so thoroughly that their work has become just parts of an astonishing and unique vocabulary.I'd buy another whole collection of this music, immediately if/when it gets released, then I'd ask when the Gonzalez/Gonzalez/Berrios rhythm section was going to take a stab at the same work.
Is the review positive or negative?
