5.0 out of 5 stars Wow! Jazz at it's best!, August 25, 2006
By 
P. K. Suczek (San Francisco Bay Area) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Radiant Blue (Audio CD)
I'm a jazz collector with over 600 jazz CDs and I put this one in my top category. Why? Because like the other CDs in my top category each musician is outstanding and the whole becomes greater than the parts (a la "Kind of Blue" with Miles, Coltrane, Cannonball, Bill Evans, Paul Chambers, etc.). Schwartz has never sounded better, Peter Bernstein is incredible on guitar (& I'm not even a big fan of jazz guitar), and Taylor Eigsti is a force to be reckoned with on piano. Don't miss it!

5.0 out of 5 stars An absolutely gorgeous record!, November 5, 2006

This review is from: Radiant Blue (Audio CD)
This CD is a gem - a fusion of mainstream jazz and more modern sounds. It's bluesy, mellow and full of hard-hitting bop. An important adition to a jazz library!

5.0 out of 5 stars Grooves in the the Turrentine tradition, December 4, 2006
By 
This review is from: Radiant Blue (Audio CD)
First I have to say that i really like Anton Schwartz sax playing. The only objection that I might have is that his own personal voice and "language" could have been more stringent, Anyhow Schwartz can really groove and swing and he must have been listening quite a lot to Stanley Turrentine and to some extent also to Joshua Redman,,two masters of groove.The Turrentine influence is very obvoius in the medium shuffle groove "Blues for Now" where he plays with great confidence,,where Peter Bernstein sets the groove with a wonderfully focused "Grant Green" inspired solo.
Anyway,,,I am very happy to see someone that bring forward the bluesflavoured sax tradition and do it in such a appealing way. as Schwartz is doing here...and I doubt I have ever heard Bernstein swings harder than on this session,,he is just great here.Pianoplayer Taylor Eigsti is a new aqquintance for me..I dig his playing a bit McCoy Tyner mixed with a bit Wynton Kelly (in my ears) great playing.

If you like groove /soulful hardbop the way it was done in the Blue Note Sessions in the sixties,,well this is something for you.
