Music reviews of Jing Chi Live at Yoshi's

Music Review: Live is better zen studio
Rating: 4 Stars

JING CHI LIVE AT YOSHI'S finds the original Jing-Chi trio in a live setting with a couple of guests. The guests definitely help.
Overall the band still delivers blues/rock with Jazz flavorings. Like the studio version the disc is mostly instrumental but there are 2 vocal tunes. If Blues/rock is your thing then you'll be loving this. Robben Ford is still the featured player on this disc; However, unlike the studio release, I was expecting it. Ford, once again, delivers with his blues/jazz/rock style. No shred, just pure feeling and his tone smokes. His style is still a blend of Hendrix/SRV/Johnson/Beck, which places him in esteemed company. He just might be the best living Blues/Rock guitarist out there. One of the many highlights for him is 'Stan Key'. Jimmy Haslip still is in the background but is solid. Vinnie is given more room to show his stuff and he delivers on songs like 'The Hong Kong Incident'. I have heard better Vinnie, but this should make fans happy.
The two guests are Marc Russo and Otmaro Ruiz. Russo is only on one song, 'Blues MD', but he adds a new sound to the mix and the band definitely sounds better when they add more people to the trio. This is especailly true for Otmaro Ruiz. Ruiz was a member of John Mclaughlin's "Heart of Things" band and he contributes to practically every song. His keyboard sound and style are a perfect fit. He doesn't overplay but adds to every song that he is heard on.
The disc has 8 songs on it and half of them are on the studio version. So, if you want new material then you've got it. Among the new songs are a Bob Dillon cover "Cold Irons bound" and a piece added by Ruiz, 'What Goes Around". I hope this means that he'll be on any future recordings. The studio songs are given more depth live because the trio stretches and Ruiz makes me wish that he was on the first disc. Even a vocal tune like "Going Nowhere" sounds good on this effort. If you liked the first disc then you'll like this one as well. I found the first disc to be mediocre but this one is very good. Jazz/Fusion is taken to new heights when it is performed live and JING CHI is a testament to this.
