Synopsis
Product Description
Situation Six plays a full set of fresh fusion, funk, and souljazz on their debut release, 3/thirteen. The grooves are funky, the solos are burning, and the entire album is dripping with the gritty yet sophisticated style.
I suppose this should technically be considered an EP, but don't let its 5 track format dissuade you from giving this funk fusion group a sporting chance. This album is packed so full of grooves it's bursting at the seams (and, in the interest of full disclosure, the tracks all boast sufficiently beefy running times). As their name somewhat implies, there are six players in this group. Alto sax and trumpet lead the way, floating over the top of the tightly knit grooves provided by the bass and drums. This leaves the guitar and keys free to tastefully interject when the time is ripe, and they make the most of it. Each of the players is given ample time to showcase their solo skills as well (as wonderfully exemplified by the drum work on "View From San Pedro"), and they each pull it off with a calculated sensibility. Overall, the most impressive element here may be the fact that this was recorded live in the studio. It's great to hear the musicians fall into a groove and ride it all the way out, feeding off one another and progressively building the songs together.
