O’s Notes: Guitarist/keyboardist Sven Anderson gives us incredible variety on Doc’s Holiday, his latest work, a collection of mostly contemporary jazz. He shares the stage with a fine group of musicians along the way. The journey includes funky tracks like “Friends”, a taste of reggae on “Piano Mang” featuring Scott Cowan (t), a dash of samba on “Jobim” featuring vocalist Janet Tenaj and cellist Eugene Zenzen, and pulsating Caribbean on “Groove Chick”. Sven dials more of a straight-ahead groove on “John’s Big Feet” and “Sir Tynor”. There’s a sense of adventure on “When You Sleep, Do You Speak?” before they wrap the session with the head-bobbing groove of “Ear Ear Toe”.
