Format:Audio CD
This is high calibre, classy jazz from a bunch of mainly Italian musicians. By name this is Nicola Conte's album but he largely takes a back seat, having composed and arranged nearly everything, and then allows his fellow musicians enough to really shine. The ensemble playing is tight and the solos are short, purposeful and beautiful. The guest singers including the fabulous Chiara Civello and Jose James are superb. This is a jazz album par excellence but with many world, blues and soul influences making a tremedously varied listening experience. This must be a stong contender for album of the year.

Nicola Conte is a DJ and a classically trained musician who makes sublime Jazz music. The orchestration, arrangements, and level of playing on this album are of the highest quality. Nicola seems to have the blue note ensemble guidebook as his bedtime reading. This album, from the catchy opener onwards bristles with masterful playing, the trumpet player Till Bonner(?) particularly impressing in a Lee Morganish style of phrasing. And where do you hear a bouncing, swinging baritone saxophone these days? This is an evocative, smooth, album which seems to be the style from Schema Records. However as a trademark its not a bad one to have for the label to have. Conti wrote all but 2 of the tunes on this album and his compositions are all infused with jazz. This album is choc full of good old-fashinoned-modern-cool-toe-tapping greatness. This album wants to be leaning against a cadillac in Harlem, smoking, in a pair of pointed shoes, wearing straight trousers a nice shirt and shades on beneath the trilby. That's how cool this album is, Don't miss this modern classic.
Format:Audio CD
very nice mostly vocal jazz cd,spiritual lyrics in the vein of andy bey.sounds great on a sunny day.on the downside,it does,nt break any new ground and could have been made in the 1960,s,not such a bad thing!
