Music reviews of Gathering
Music Review: The Dave's do'n it
Rating: 5 Stars
From the very beginning this disc smokes in delightful flights of Latin jazz fancy. The opening track "Rendezvous" has a flavor reminiscent of the music created by Spyro Gyra Collection; the sax work is hot. The two Dave's(Samuel and Valentin)really team up and play well off of each other on many of the numbers creating a fresh,breezy sound that is upbeat with lots of energy. Each member gives way for solos in a true jazz manner that is bound together with Latin rhythms driven by pounding percussion. The reinterpretation of classic jazz songs like "Stolen Moments" keep true to the original song but seem to have even more bounce; again the two Dave's add another dimension to the song with their fine work on their individual solo's and counter play off of each other. Listening to this disc is like carnival. It is full of color and textures much like the tropical bird on the album cover. This is a great CD that is complete without any weekness; all of the songs are great. Recommended for Latin jazz aficionados.

Description of Gathering
All products are BRAND NEW and factory sealed. Fast shipping and 100% Satisfaction Guaranteed.This combo, featuring vibraphone-marimba master Dave Samuels, Puerto Rican flutist Dave Valentin, and Argentine keyboardist Dario Eskenazi, whisks Afro-Latin rhythms into a zesty smooth-jazz sauce. And this CD, with percussionists Richie Flores and Roberto Quintero, is the group's most aggressive to date. Various grooves, such as the mambo, songo, samba, and the cha-cha, are sonically stamped with the impressive improvisations of the soloists. Special guest and founding CJP member Paquito D'Rivera's birdlike alto sax lines fly on the spirited rendition of Thelonious Monk's tricky tune "Bemsha Swing," which features melodic snippets of the Cuban classic, "Sanduga." On Oliver Nelson's bluesy "Stolen Moments," Samuels's improvisations evoke Cal Tjader's good vibes. On "See You in a Minute," Valentin pays tribute to the late Cuban flutist Jose Fajardo. Flores and Quintero work their drum magic on the folkloric "Masacoteando." All together, the CJP speaks all of the Latin musical languages, with the accent on swing. --Eugene Holley Jr.
