| Kazumi Watanabe: Live at the Iridium |
Kazumi Watanabe (guitar); Janek Gwizdala (bass); Obed Calvaire (drums)
Watanabe was invited in 2011 by the New York club Iridium to play there as part of the "Legendary Jazz Fusion Guitarists" series. Watanabe began a search for younger bassist and drummer based in the US who would bring fresh ideas and energy, and chose Janek Gwizdala, originally from England, and Obed Calvaire who's played with Wynton Marsalis, Mike Stern and the Clayton Brothers, among others. Material for this exciting CD was taken from the three-day gig at The Iridium in October, 2011. Although they have never played together before, the superbly talented trio musicians apparently had a great rapport and "clicked" with one another. Whether playing well-known jazz musicians' compositions or Watanabe's own tunes, they burn red hot with intensity and thrilling interplay. Beautifully mastered and pressed on Blu-spec CD (Sony's high quality CD format that is compatible with all CD players), this CD will also impress audiophiles. Recommended! Recorded live at The Iridium, New York City, on October 15 and 16, 2011. Blu-spec CD is compatible with all CD players. The CD package includes an English liner notes.
