O’s Notes: David (p) is a veteran on the Contemporary jazz front with many years of successful albums and a large following. He stays fresh by surrounding himself with some of the best talent on the scene like bassist Brian Bromberg on “Six P.M.” and Euge Groove (sax) on “Chasing the Tides”. Old friends Nathan East (b), Jeff Lorber, Jeff Weber, Paul Jackson Jr. (g), Paul Brown (g) and Rick Braun (t) also add spice. But Benoit didn’t get where he is after 30 years without some talent and intuition of his own and yes, he still has it! Full Circle is certain to contain some top 10 hits.
