RAY BARRETTO with Hilton Ruiz and David Sanchez
[ZMR 200611]
Standards Rican-ditioned
[ZMR 200610]
“On Standards Rican-ditioned, Ray Barretto presents a straight-ahead
jazz project with musicians of Puerto Rican descent well versed in
jazz, playing in an authentic style of the old Blue Note, Riverside,
and Prestige dates of the 1950s and ‘60s. Song selections are from
the ‘Great American Songbook.’ Recorded in December 2005, only a
few weeks prior to his untimely death, it is his stunning yet gentle
farewell – no doubt a milestone in the musical life of Ray Barretto.”

JERRY VIVINO
A Tribute to Gypsy Swing
Call It A Good Deal
Walkin’ with the Wazmo
“On Gypsy Swing the Austrian-born guitarist
burns up the fretboard with astounding
technique that combines strength, speed,
finesse, and soul into one scintillating
package. Stojka conveys that irrepressible
Django spirit throughout … a major guitar
talent.” —Bill Milkowski
“David is my first alto sax front line guy in the
Chico O’Farrill Afro-Cuban Jazz Orchestra. Call
It a Good Deal grooves hard, the playing is
superb, the writing unique. His playing is like
an Escher painting, impossible angles, infinite
possibilities – truly an original soloist with
intellect and passion.” —Arturo O’ Farrill
Saxophonist Jerry Vivino is an A-list
session musician, well-known for his stint
with drummer Max Weinberg, performing
on TV host Conan O’ Brien’s late-night show.
Vivino’s burly, Gene Ammons-like tenor sax
sound rides atop New Orleans shuffle grooves,
samba beats, swing vamps, and funk motifs.
BONNIE BRAMLETT
Roots, Blues & Jazz
“ Bonnie Bramlett’s latest [CD] doesn’t half
describe this hell-for-leather collection …
it should be called Roots, Blues Country,
Folk, Rock, Gospel, Soul and Just About
Every Other Blasted Thing I’ve Bumped
Up Against During a Half-Century of High
Times and Hard Knocks.” — Jazz Times
