Larry Coryell-Victor Bailey-Lenny White • Traffic

 



Chesky Records is pleased to announce the September 26 release of Traffic, CBW’s highly anticipated follow-up to their 2005 debut, Electric. The power trio/supergroup features the godfather of fusion guitar Larry Coryell, former Weather Report bassist Victor Bailey and veteran Return to Forever drummer Lenny White.

Traffic continues the CBW tradition of blending virtuosic original compositions with immaculately conceived interpretations of jazz and classic rock standards. Original songs on Traffic include go-for-the-throat throwdowns like “Judith Loves Jazz,” “Door #3” and “Overruled,” while covers of Thelonious Monk’s “Misterioso” and Jimi Hendrix’s “Manic Depression” are also featured.

Though Coryell & Co. have been acclaimed for their raw, in-your-face sound, they also know how to apply finesse when necessary. Traffic even finds CBW unplugging for gentle acoustic respites like “Jake’s Lullaby” and “Joyce’s Favorite.” “It’s not only a detour from the rest of the program, but I think it’s a needed one in the first decade of the 21st century,” Coryell says of the featured acoustic numbers. “I just don’t think we can go all the way through with loud rockin’ stuff, so we offer a few detours on this record.”

Other sonic highlights include a rare documented instance of Coryell playing slide on “Misterioso” and Bailey’s two-handed tapping technique on several tracks throughout the album. Recorded in St. Peter’s Episcopal Church in New York, Traffic uncompromisingly captures the immediacy of uncompressed live music in a sonically rich environment; CBW just let the tape roll and channeled the spirit of the moment. “Monk told me one thing that I will never forget,” Coryell recalls.” He said, ‘Wrong is right, baby!’ And on this record, we all took his advice. We all made mistakes with authority and it sounds good.”

Chesky Records se complace en anunciar el lanzamiento el 26 de septiembre de Traffic, el muy esperado seguimiento de CBW de su debut en 2005, Electric. El poderoso trío / supergrupo presenta al padrino de la guitarra fusión Larry Coryell, al ex bajista de Weather Report Victor Bailey y al veterano baterista de Return to Forever, Lenny White.

Traffic continúa la tradición de CBW de mezclar composiciones originales virtuosas con interpretaciones impecablemente concebidas de estándares de jazz y rock clásico. Las canciones originales de Traffic incluyen versiones descaradas como "Judith Loves Jazz", " Door #3 "y " Overruled", mientras que también se incluyen versiones de "Misterioso" de Thelonious Monk y "Manic Depression" de Jimi Hendrix.

Aunque Coryell & Co. han sido aclamados por su sonido crudo y directo a la cara, también saben cómo aplicar delicadeza cuando es necesario. Traffic incluso encuentra CBW desconectándose para suaves respiros acústicos como "Jake's Lullaby" y " Joyce's Favorite."No es solo un desvío del resto del programa, sino que creo que es necesario en la primera década del siglo XXI", dice Coryell sobre los números acústicos presentados. "Simplemente no creo que podamos llegar hasta el final con cosas ruidosas de rock, así que ofrecemos algunos desvíos en este disco.”

Otros aspectos destacados de sonic incluyen una rara instancia documentada de Coryell tocando slide en "Misterioso" y la técnica de tapping a dos manos de Bailey en varias pistas a lo largo del álbum. Grabado en la Iglesia Episcopal de San Pedro en Nueva York, Traffic captura sin concesiones la inmediatez de la música en vivo sin comprimir en un entorno sonoramente rico; CBW simplemente dejó rodar la cinta y canalizó el espíritu del momento. "Monk me dijo una cosa que nunca olvidaré", recuerda Coryell."Él dijo:' ¡Lo incorrecto es correcto, bebé! Y en este disco, todos seguimos su consejo. Todos cometemos errores con autoridad y suena bien.”
