CD Reviews

A CD recording not to be missed in 2006/2007
J.F. Cooper | USA | 01/21/2007
(5 out of 5 stars)

"I saw this CD on a NY metro Top Ten CD's list for 2006 and boy did they get that right! A combination of great overall playing and fantastic tunes, especially DeVos' originals - great guitar tone, really fat and warm. A must for jazz guitar fans and lovers of the modern guitar-Hammond organ-drums genre. Eric Alexander,on tenor sax,delivers a five star performance, as well. A super recording, not to be missed!"
A Burning CD! WOW!

"Bob DeVos is my guitar hero and this CD is terrific: All the DeVos signatures are lushly displayed: a gorgeous sound, incredible blues feel and wow, does he swing. You can tell he is playing with his working band and long-time associate Eric Alexander; there is great interplay among all the artists and the sounds mesh fantastically, especially on the title track, a rich gospel-sounding groove, written by DeVos. The CD starts out with a great funk tune, and builds from there. Great DeVos arrangements. This CD has it all: wit, groove, and it just compels you along to the last note. I've worn out Breaking the Ice--DeVos' first Savant CD with the great Charles Earland-- and it looks like I am going to do the same with this new offering. Don't miss this one!"
Classic organ combo
Avid | Chicago IL | 11/13/2007
(4 out of 5 stars)

"This is a very nice, big recording by an excellent trio - straight ahead organ jazz - though its DeVos' gig. DeVos is not a pyrotechnics guy, but he is tasteful, makes every note count and has a beautiful sound. The remainder of the trio is solid, if unspectacular. I would have liked to have heard more Eric Alexander - he appears on 3 tracks and his playing elevates the band, in my opinion. 'Track and Field' is a high point, with Alexander soaring over Kostelnik's Hammond and DeVos taking his most fluid solo - conjuring up Pat Martino. Recommended."
