I just had the opportunity to review the debut release, Prime Vintage, from Steve Synder Trio and it's quite enjoyable. Opening with Legacy, a solid shuffle with a great walking bass line by Synder on organ. Joel Tucker on guitar lays out an excellent, fluid guitar solo with all of the feel you could want. Synder on organ sets his own solo keeping the excitement at a near boil, grounded by Kenny Phelps on drums. Great opener. High energy, Sharp Left, is really tight with a great intro by Phelps and Synder leading to a phrenzy of guitar work by Tucker. Synder again shores up with another solo of his own. Very nice. Latin flavored, Thank You, has real radio appeal with it's flashy rhythm and meaty exchange between Synder's warm organ and Tucker's fleet fingered guitar soloing. Wrapping the release is deep groove, So That's What This Is All About, with Synder creating a nice shuffle and warm feel on his organ. Tucker is on top of it with light touch, blues influenced, solo phrasing and warm chords. Cool syncopation by Synder on organ, holding the bass line tight, reinforced by Tucker and Phelps really gives this closer a great feel. Solid closer for a strong release.
