O’s Notes: Saxophonist Jim Snidero brings us a straight-ahead quintet with Orrin Evans (p), Peter Washington (b), Joe Farnsworth (d) and featured guitarist, Kurt Rosenwinkel. Far Far Away is a blend of fresh jazz-fusion tunes like “Infinity” with Snidero’s warm tones, and “Nowhere to Hide”. Snidero and Rosenwinkel combine on several melodies notably on “Pat” and “Little Falls” with nice work from Evans as well. We also enjoyed Washington’s fine solo on “Search For Peace”.
