Music reviews of Splendid
Music Review: Splendid! A spectacular effort....better than their first collaboration!
Rating: 4 Stars
Actually, I must admit that I heard this work before Coryell/Catherine's first collaboation, Full House. And, I still like this one even better! I think this one rolls along better because of the occasional use of electric guitar, and one song even has a pianist. That slight versatility makes this album a more pleasant listening experience. Of course, the original "Twin House" was an excellent work that is purely acoustic guitar duets by Coryell and Catherine, two monster talents in jazz guitar. And the acoustic sets all work well. Their prowess is displayed admirably. This album, "Splendid", is just as impressive a display of acoustic guitar duets. However, I like the song selection better on this album over TH. Splendid is also better because the two mellow songs featuring Coryell on acoustic & Catherine doing beautiful, melodic electric guitar work adds a different flavor to the album. And the song with 2 acoustic guitars and one piano is also a wonderful addition that adds a pleasing texture to the overall album. So to wrap this up, Twin House was very good, but this album had a better song selection, was a bit more instrumentally versatile, and was just a better album! Four, almost four and a half stars!
