O’s Notes: Canadian trumpeter Gabriel Mark Hasselbach returns on Open Invitation with his proven formula for success: a cadre of talented guest artists, fresh, funky rhythms and at least one soulful vocal track. “Lovelight” spotlights Hasselbach with vocals from Dee & Brittani Cole. Bob Baldwin (p) shines on “Charmed Life”; Bob Mintzer (sax) adds spice on “Let It Slide” and Cory Weeds (sax) stars on “Carte Blanche”. These are a few of the highlights in yet another winning set from GMH.
