Live Gonzo!, June 7, 2004
This review is from: Live Gonz! (Audio CD)
Not to be confused with Ted Nugent's "Double Live Gonzo", "Live GONZ!" is master saxophonist and educator Jerry Bergonzi's 2001 recording on Double-Time Records. This single CD recording captures Bergonzi's quartet performing in front of a very appreciative audience at the Duc Des Lombard club in France. Every song is over 10 minutes long (65 minutes total) and the band takes the opportunity to explore each piece, whether it's barnstorming the standard "Have You Met Miss Jones", getting bossa nova on "Different Places Again" or swinging on "A Different Look". The quartet, which includes Renato Chicco on piano, Dave Santoro on bass, and Andrea Michelutti on drums, is in fine form and well recorded on this modern bop date.
