5.0 out of 5 stars Rainbow Mountain - to the Summit, October 2, 2000

This review is from: Rainbow Mountain (Audio CD)

Just received Lew Soloff's Latest Release Lew Soloff and Company, "Rainbow Mountain". This CD is a mix of rock, jazz, R&B, and fusion. The cuts on this CD will get you snapping your fingers and tapping your toes. This CD is reminiscint of what the Jazz/Rock, Fusion bands and Horn Rock bands of the 70s sounded like when the horns let loose. The title track, "Rainbow Mountain" has a very contemporary sound. Lew's quintet is augmented by 6 other very talented musicians to give a really full sound in the groove.

Solos by Soloff and Lou Marini are exciting and fun on all cuts. The rhythm section, Pat Metheny Group veterans - Mark Egan and Danny Gottlieb keeps things driving home througout the CD. Joe Beck's guitar pulls it all together.

Recommended addition to any jazz fan's collection.

Bob Sturges
