Review by Alex Henderson
Although Like That was recorded in New York, many of the people involved with the project were Philadelphians. The pleasing hard bop date unites Jimmy Bruno's Philly-based trio of the 1990s (which includes bassist Craig Thomas and drummer Steve Holloway) with organist/trumpeter and Philly native Joey DeFrancesco, while the liner notes were written by guitar great Pat Martino (another Philadelphian). Producer Allen Farnham, however, lived close to New York in northern New Jersey. Bruno's guitar and DeFrancesco's organ prove highly compatible on selections ranging from Sam Jones' "Unit Seven" and Jerome Kern's "The Way You Look Tonight" to Bruno originals such as the sentimental "Waltz for Nancy," the angular "Raezer's Edge," and the mellifluous "Night Dreamer." Although DeFrancesco plays organ on most of the 11 songs, he switches to the trumpet and favors a Miles Davis-influenced mute on relaxed versions of "There Is No Greater Love" and "Stars Fell on Alabama." Bruno's Concord output has been quite consistent, and this fine CD is no exception.

Revisión por Alex HendersonAunque Like That se grabó en Nueva York, muchas de las personas involucradas en el proyecto eran Filadelfia. La
agradable cita de hard bop une al trío de Jimmy Bruno con base en
Filadelfia de la década de 1990 (que incluye al bajista Craig Thomas y
al baterista Steve Holloway) con el organista / trompetista y el nativo
de Filadelfia Joey DeFrancesco, mientras que las notas de la línea
fueron escritas por el guitarrista Pat Martino ). El productor Allen Farnham, sin embargo, vivía cerca de Nueva York en el norte de Nueva Jersey. La
guitarra de Bruno y el órgano de DeFrancesco son altamente compatibles
en selecciones que van desde "Unit Seven" de Sam Jones y "The Way You
Look Tonight" de Jerome Kern hasta originales de Bruno como el "Waltz
for Nancy", el "Sentido de Nancy", y la meliflua "soñadora nocturna". Aunque
DeFrancesco toca el órgano en la mayoría de las 11 canciones, cambia a
la trompeta y prefiere un mute influenciado por Miles Davis en versiones
relajadas de "There Is No Greater Love" y "Stars Fell on Alabama". La salida de Bruno Concord ha sido bastante consistente, y este excelente CD no es una excepción.
