CD Reviews

This Just In -- "Bebop" is a tour de force!
01/03/2002
(4 out of 5 stars)

"Breakstone is an extremely talented and versatile guitarist playing sometimes in the bebop idiom, sometimes with a gentle and rhythmic sensitivity as well. His lines are inventive, quoting widely from the masters, Gillespie to Strayhorn. His fingerings at times are challenging, in fact, even dare-devil, a la Tal Farlow. This CD contains a mix of tunes, from hard bop standards, such as Gillespie's "Bebop" to soft ballads, such as "Everything I Have is Yours." "Bebop" is a true tour de force - a stunner! His highly esteemed sidemen, Kenny Washington, Sid Simmons, and Dennis Irwin complement Breakstone at every turn. My one complaint is that the guitar sometimes sounds a bit faded."
