O’s Notes: We only had to get into the first selection “Scirocco’s Theory” to appreciate Badoglio’s talent as an electric jazz-fusion bassist. He wrote and arranged the majority of the music here and done of fine job recasting the jazz-fusion craze of the late 1970s with the spirit of the new millennium. Roberto leads a trio with producer Steve Hunt (p), and either Pablo De Biasi (d, perc) or Marty Richards (d). “Inner Urge” is a cool funky number featuring Hunt’s synthesizer solo. All of the musicians are talented this is clearly Badoglio’s set and he does a fine job from end to end leading melodies and anchoring a rock solid bottom.
