By John Gilbert
Zvonimir Tot's rapid fire guitar sets the pace in this fine ensemble.
His ballad style also highlights this recording with soulful elegance.
"Jungle Walk" is a fast paced tune showing Tot's dexterity along with a
fine trumpet solo by Art Davis. Ideas run rampant in the exchanges,
making for a most interesting listen.It is apparent that Rusty Jones is
a seasoned drummer with impeccable taste as he guides the rhythm without
going into overdrive.
"Pamela's Song"..Pamela is a fortunate lass to have this lovely tune
dedicated to her. A solid ballad featuring trumpeter Davis's thoughtful
solo.
Maybe the centerpiece of this album is "Who Shot The Guitarist" This
song has a boppish feel with the blues underscoring matters. Art Davis
'gets after it' with a swinging soliloquy and Tot ambles along
gracefully with a fine message of his own. Rusty Jones again
demonstrates his skill as an in the pocket drummer. The four bar shots
with Jones are a conversation that goes right to the heart of hip.
This is another fine addition for the jazz lovers of the world to add to
their collection...
