Guest bluenote82 Posted February 21, 2008 Report Share Posted February 21, 2008 I have not heard this new album, but I do wish it was in a quartet. I find Rava's work to be very good, but hey it's a good album it's a good album, right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jlhoots Posted February 21, 2008 Report Share Posted February 21, 2008 This may be a minority opinion, but personally I don't think that because a disc was received as a promo is even germane to the discussion. The music is the same, whether you bought it, traded for it, downloaded it from eMusic or received it as a promo. This may be "goofy", but I have a feeling that if you pay for something you may try harder to "like" it. If it's free, it might be easier to "dispose" of.

Van Basten II Posted March 3, 2008 Report Share Posted March 3, 2008 Bought it from Amazon, listened it once, those who hate ECMish stuff won't like it one bit. For the rest you should enjoy it after a first time listening it is an album that will be worth listening again a few times, Rava has a very dreamy way of playing that makes him the standout man of this duet.

Maybe on Pluto. ------ I love their latest record 'Tati' in trio setting with Paul Motian as the third man. I will have to buy-borrow from a friend- borrow from the record library-whatever- to make my own opinion on this release. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
