Исполнитель: Eric Alexander Название альбома: Touching Год выпуска: 2013 Формат файлов: Mp3 320kbps cbr Размер архива: 115Mb rar Скачать с: Rusfolder Nothing is certain in this world with the exception of death, taxes, and Eric Alexander...O.K. so this is my riff on the famous Benjamin Franklin quotation but the trademark of Alexander is his remarkable consistency no matter the music or the supporting cast in and around him. There is something to be said for an old school, old soul player that is as technically proficient as he is artistically gifted and this fits Eric Alexander to perfection. The HighNote/Savant family tends to specialize in more traditional straight ahead jazz as do but only a handful of labels but their ability to put the right people in the right spot to best make use of their artistry is uncanny. Engineered, mixed & mastered by the legendary Rudy Van Gelder should be enough reason for most people to take a listen to Touching which is understated elegance that reminds this critic of the days of Hank Mobley, Dexter Gordon, and Ben Webster. No one sounds like Alexander today with most new players concentrating on flash with little substance. Touching finds Alexander taking a more minimalistic approach with no notes wasted and the beauty of a simply melody in turn guiding the 4tet into the lyrical possibilities that seem to be been placed in the jazz witness protection program. Easily one of the best for 2013...Perfection on a shiny silver disc! Eric Alexander is as cool as the other side of the pillow. ~ criticaljazz.com
