PB's dreams, November 25, 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: Dreams (Audio CD)
PB had played with Gary Thomas, and had Joey deFrancesco in his previous albums. As such, his style is grounded in traditional bebop to soul, but also venture into the "out", sometime incorporating fusion ala john mclaughlin. but in this album he chose to be in a trio setting, supported by ray drummond and jeff tain watts. thus it's more traditional setting. the tunes chosen are mostly in moderate tempo and after a while can be difficult to concentrate on ... maybe the title 'dreams' ?
anyway, this is a solid outing. PB plucks the string in confident manner, and the record quality is good. you can hear the guitar sound loud and clear though still in traditional jazzbox tone, unlike some of bebop guitarists whose sound can be buried in the mix.
