4.0 out of 5 stars It's infused with a sense of spiritual jazz., June 30, 2011

Nicola Conte has rightly established himself as the premier Italian jazz maestro with a string of great albums.

He returns to recording, and this time he is speaking of love and revolution in an album released by the legendary label Impulse!

"Love and Revolution", infused with a sense of spiritual jazz, will please his existing fans and gain others. His style of bossa based cool jazz using a full band of great musicians and vocalists is a winning formula. Jose James, Gregory Porter, Nailah Porter, Alice Ricciardi, among others, provide the vocals on great covers of "Love From The Sun'", "Ghana", "Temple Of The Far East", and original tracks "Black Spirits", "Shiva" and "Do You feel Like I Feel".

Other great jazz musicians join in, lending a hand to this great project: Till Bronner, Fabrizio Bosso, and Flavio Boltro on trumpet, Magnus Lindgren and Tim Warfield on tenor and Timo Lassey on flute and baritone.

The Italian master assembled these musicians for a 'live' recording - reserving only a few additions during post production.

The CD is a reflection in music on the values of our society: values to recuperate, values that have continued to be a beacon for many generations, values sung by youths in the late 1960s. And it is precisely this cultural atmosphere that Conte refers to, both in his choice of repertoire and in the splendid arrangements by Magnus Lindgren, and perhaps above all in the lyrics.

I always look forward to the next Nicola Conte album. It's like a breath of fresh air.. "Love from the Sun" is my favorite track on this album.
