Popular Post Domeniss Posted May 30, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted May 30, 2019 ALBUM CREDITS: Produced by Christian McBride Recorded and Mixed by Todd Whitelock Mastered by Mark Wilder Available @ https://bluecoastmusic.com In addition to his own work, McBride also portrays his musical heroes and inspirations such as McCoy Tyners ’Sahara or jazz guitarist Wes Montgomery (Full House) or, with the help of vocalist Melissa Walker, takes a classic like Mr Bojangles. These illustrate his capacity as a big band leader to find suitable tunes and the right musicians to perform. His own work such as Used 'Ta Could should certainly not be inferior, yet the most notable passages are those in which the arrangements stand out such as In The Wee Small Hours Of The Morning or the intimately beautiful closing piece Optimism, a composition by Steve Davis that may also be solo to shine. Strong and experienced band leader, good tunes, lots of variety. There are actually no reasons why you should not purchase this album.
