THE BEST CD of Rbih Abou-Khalil (World Jazz music),
By A Customer
This review is from: Al-Jadida (Audio CD)
DO NOT MISS these Jazz Creations.As usual Rabih Abou-Khalil is playing with some great Musicians, Sonny Fortune (alto sax), Glen Moore (bass) ... and the result is a perfect album. They retain truly Arabic base while flowing freely as the best Jazz can do. The result is 'richly polyrythmic' and let your mind dreaming of a warm sand world. It is not gift (for you or someone beloved), it's a way to reach different and better feelings of life. NB : 'Al Jadida' received the 'ffff' Telerama review Label (the best French critics) FM

Another great album,
By GlazedLamb@aol.com (Salem, OR) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Al-Jadida (Audio CD)
Sonny Fortune's distinct playing dominates Al-Jadida, right from the opening bars to "Cantania." Though I don't think he's the greatest sax player to play with Rabih, he certainly is one of the most unique, and you'll definitely find yourself waiting for his next solo. Al-Jadida is pretty minimalist and conventional for RA-K, but the compositions and melodies are great, and the real exploration is in the solos -- and on an oddball, short piece, albeit a worthwhile one, called "Ornette Never Sleeps." I half expected to hear some great flute playing, but no such luck.

A Great Mix,
By Dave_42 "Dave_42" (Australia) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Al-Jadida (Audio CD)
"Al-Jadida" is a wonderful blend of jazz and middle-eastern music. Similar to "Between Dusk And Dawn" in that it is heavier on the jazz element, it also differs in the feel. The music seems to have more energy and movement. Of the pieces on this album: "Catania", "An Evening With Jerry", and "Nadim" are all excellent. The interplay between Rabih Abou-Khalil's oud and Sonny Fortune's alto saxophone is simply great. The lineup for this album is: Rabih Abou-Khalil (oud), Sonny Fortune (alto saxophone), Glen Moore (bass), Ramesh Shotham (South Indian drums, percussion), and Nabil Khaiat (frame drums, percussion).
