O’s Notes: Cinque is a quintet including bassist Peter Cardinali, drummer Steve Gadd and master of the B3, Joey DeFrancesco. Robi Botos leads the melody on the Latin tinged “Bolivia” and John Johnson puts soulful sax into the title track, two of our favorites. These polished musicians play a total of eight selections. The band composes six spontaneously with one take in the studio. It’s all funky and has that contagious groove that makes hits.
