echoing is a collection of straight-ahead jazz tunes in the Miles
Davis/Cannonball Adderley tradition. Comprised of six original compositions and
five songs by other writers, a broad range of emotions and styles are explored,
from the full-out swing of Beautiful Love to the anguish and passion of
Strayhorn's Blood Count, the spiritual soul of Amazing Grace, the
funky beat of Hotcakes and the changing moods of Snow Tracks.
There's a nod to John Coltrane in the 6/8 setting of the 15th century French
carol, Noel Nouvelet, and the influence of twelve years of playing in
Latin bands is clear in Ladrón. From the shouts of Holler to the
cries of Echoes, this album will take you on a journey.
