The End of an Affair - A Classic Novel by Graham Greene | Perfect for Book Clubs & Literary Enthusiasts

You cannot say enough about One For All. There is not a better collective playing any kind of music on the planet right now. The group is so good that no one musician can stand out. Eric Alexander has that fat sound with endless ideas. Steve Davis warms up the ballads with his trombone and sounds like he is playing valves on the uptempo numbers. Rotundi sound like belongs in the top rung of trumpet players ever. Dave Hazeltine I think does his best work in this collective and shines on this album. Joe Farnsworth and Peter Washington are a stellar rhythm section.The session starts with an uptempo modern jazz number, "End of Love affairs", with strong solos from everyone. Their version of "Stolen Moments" is pretty true to the original with strings of course.The treatment of the Jobim tune Corvacado is appropriately lush."How Are You?" has an uptempo Horace Silver type latin groove to it."Shinjuku Waltz" is midtempo tune with an particularly wonderful Steve Davis solo. "Skylark" is done very sweetly and "Eyes Have It" is an uptempo blues. Street of Dreams, another standard concludes the session.This is the state of the art modern jazz septet.
