Almost gets there, but then misses
R G-S Listen with all your might! | Los Angeles CA USA | 08/19/2004
(3 out of 5 stars)

"Pianist Chesky has interesting melodic and harmonic ideas. He's rounded up monster players. Somehow, it just doesn't ever fall together completely and satisfyingly. My problem was that the ideas, tone colors, tempos and rhythmic structures of all these pieces are just too similar. Gonzalez and Hidalgo play really pretty, really interesting medium tempo son tumbao all the way through, but why hire'em, and then limit them to what amounts to variations on a single groove? HOw about something in 6, or at least a rumba? How about some post-Dolphy/Maupin upper-register snarl from Mintzer, some muted bolero-tempo or shreiking bop-fusion work from Randy B?
