Nigel Price, the British jazz guitarist devoted to such late guitar
heroes as Wes Montgomery and Grant Green, cruises through some classic
themes and compatible originals with the fine pairing of Pete Whittaker
on Hammond organ and Matt Home on drums. But if Price and co tick all
the boxes of this style, closer listening reveals their audacity and
advanced techniques, particularly notable in the fluency with which they
mix tempos and time signatures in between and sometimes within tracks.
Up Jumped Spring splices two speeds of swing and fast-waltz passages;
Chelsea Bridge gets a Latin feel; Lover Man is a fast samba with
stop-start breaks but features some nimble swerves and a Django
Reinhardt-like tone from the leader; and the delectable ballad Detour
Ahead features the trio at their collective best. Saxophonist Vasilis
Xenopoulos helps the band muscle through the hustling finale Hot Seat, a
classic swing-to-bop gallop. This is a respectful celebration of a
now-smooth tradition, but a very musical one.

Nigel Price, el guitarrista de jazz británico dedicado a héroes de la
guitarra como Wes Montgomery y Grant Green, recorre algunos temas
clásicos y originales compatibles con la fina pareja de Pete Whittaker
en el órgano Hammond y Matt Home en la batería. Pero si Price y compañía
marcan todas las casillas de este estilo, al escucharlos más de cerca
se revela su audacia y sus técnicas avanzadas, particularmente notables
en la fluidez con la que mezclan los tempos y los compases entre y a
veces dentro de las pistas. Up Jumped Spring combina dos velocidades de
swing y pasajes de vals rápido; Chelsea Bridge tiene un toque latino;
Lover Man es una samba rápida con pausas de parada y arranque pero con
algunos giros ágiles y un tono parecido al de Django Reinhardt del
líder; y la deliciosa balada Detour Ahead presenta al trío en su mejor
momento. El saxofonista Vasilis Xenopoulos ayuda al músculo de la banda
en el último Hot Seat, un clásico galope de swing a bop. Esta es una
respetuosa celebración de una tradición ahora suave, pero muy musical.
