Alfredo Naranjo Y El Guajeo
Import
CD
(Cacao Musica 350022),
Released 2007;
Editor's Pick:
One of the better bands in Venezuela, El Guajeo works around Naranjo’s vibes, supported by a fairly big jazz-esq band. Occasionally Naranajo’s joined by bata drummers, the same ones that helped lift Changuito’s album into the air. It’s descarga music, with long solos; Jimmy Bosch sits in on trombone on a few tracks, and there’s a coro on most pieces. Naranjo’s interested in all sorts of different harmony; there are moments of simple, traditional harmony, and at times the music gets modern. And on Guajeo y su Rumbata, a mix of the modern and the bata, the music just takes off, astoundingly beautiful; the coro will leave you breathless, and asking for more. Perfectly recorded, and exciting, and completely honest, the album can be taken as a good example of the power of local music, music meant for dancing, made by intelligent musicians who sense a responsibility to their audience.
Highly Recommended. (Peter Watrous, 2007-06-11)
