Jazz Ruler Type: Fusion
Performance: 4
Sound: 4
Score:
O’s Notes: Manuel Weyand plays drums. Nicholas Biello plays sax. Together they lead Fourthought producing and writing six fresh compositions plus a cool arrangement of “Green Dolphin Street”. Cameron Kayne (b) and Kerong Chok (p) round out the quartet. This is energetic modern jazz that swings on “Laurceny”. The pace is relaxed on most tracks notably Wayland’s “Rumi-Native” and “Arrival”. We also enjoyed the warmth of “A Change of Heart” capping a fine session.
