I just had the opportunity to review the most recent release, Live At The Pump House Music Works, by Dan Moretti & Brazilia, and it's hot. Opening with mambo, Black Nile, this release is hitting on all cylinders right off the bat. With Dan Moretti leading the way on tenor sax, you'll be dancing in your chair. Maxim Lubarsky on piano lays down a stellar solo, reinforced by Oscar Stagnaro on bass, Ernesto Diaz on percussion and Steve Langone on drums. Excellent opener. Night Dreamer is a cool blend of reggae and Latin jazz with straight up sax melody by Moretti and a bountiful piano solo by Lubarsky with tight rhythms by Stagnaro, Diaz and Langone, and a powerful tenor solo by Moretti. Very cool. Wayne Shorter's Witch Hunt is given a Latin flavor and features a strong bass solo by Stagnaro and relentless tenor work by Moretti, making this one of my favorites on the release. Yes or No is sensational in 7 with Moretti on soprano sax, strong bass lead by Stagnaro and excellent drum work by Langone. Wrapping the release is Footprints with it's driving Latin rhythm reinforced by Diaz and fluid lead work by Moretti on tenor. The band takes the volume down but Lubarsky keeps the heat on with energetic piano phrasing over double time snare/cymbal work by Langone. Strong closer.
