On Tom Wolfe's latest studio effort, "Solerovescent," Tom Wolfe has assembled (IMHO) the perfect rhythm section for this particular project: Wolfe (guitars), Tim Goodwin (acoustic bass on all tracks that include horn), Chris Kozak (acoustic bass on all guitar trio songs) & Danny Gottlieb (drums on all tracks). On "Solerovescent," Wolfe's composing & playing both reach a new high & there is not one "filler track," which many CDs (including jazz) do contain. Every song takes the listener to a unique place. Plus, the 10 tracks on this CD are in what seems to be the perfect song order - reminiscent of more of a SUITE than simply a collection of songs. All is very well thought through, mood wise, energy wise & even KEY wise. "Solerovescent" hasn't left my car CD player since I got it a few weeks ago & I cannot see replacing it with any other CDs anytime soon... VERY HIGHLY RECOMMENDED - 5 SOLID STARS!
