I just had the opportunity to review the most recent release, Tornado Watch, from Adam Hersh and it's quite interesting. Opening with Woe V Shade, Adam Hersh on Rhodes piano, Jermaine Paul on bass and Myles Martin on drums create a whirling rhythm. Andrew Renfroe on guitar joins adding to the mix and a very cool tight mix. Parallel Motion is a deeper exploration featuring Evan Abounassar on trumpet and Devin Daniels on Alto sax. Hersh on Rhodes and stepping bass lines by Paul create an intriguing dialog and Daniels on sax plays thoughtfully expressive phrasing. Very interesting. On Concessions there is a distinct change in direction with a more forward melody by Abounassar and Daniels. With a bop driving bass line by Paul and piano encouragement by Hersh, Daniels lays out a real nice solo. Hersh takes the reins and a real nice gallop over Paul's bass line and tight drum action by Martin. Very nice. Wrapping the release is Propellant with a smooth, almost Latin influence. Paul keeps it tight with Hersh and Daniels holding the melody. Joined by Abounassar on trumpet and Renfroe on guitar, Paul's bass comes to life with solid lead lines. A real nice melodic piano solo by Hersh takes over the track with light bass and drum bottom giving way to a strong trumpet solo by Abounassar and then Daniels on sax. Solid closer.
