Review by Ken Dryden
Father
and son duos are relatively rare in jazz but there's no generation gap
apparent between Bucky and John Pizzarelli. The two have made a number
of strong LPs and CDs together (and individually as well), although it
is tough to lavish sufficient praise on this duo-guitar date, played
primarily on seven-string electric guitars. Each man adapts equally
well, whether in the lead, providing rhythmic support for the other, or
matching his partner's lyricism while playing the head of a song. An
invigorating "Three Little Words" introduces the two masterful
guitarists with a flourish, followed by a lightly swinging take of
"Jersey Bounce," the bluesy "Two Funky People," and the strutting
acoustic duet "Test Pilot." Bucky is featured on two unaccompanied
miniatures, "My Romance" and the rarely heard "For Whom the Bell Tolls."
Very highly recommended.

Reseña de Ken Dryden
Los
dúos de padre e hijo son relativamente raros en el jazz, pero no hay
brecha generacional aparente entre Bucky y John Pizzarelli. Los dos han
hecho una serie de sólidos LPs y CDs juntos (e individualmente también),
aunque es difícil prodigar suficientes elogios a esta cita
dúo-guitarra, tocada principalmente con guitarras eléctricas de siete
cuerdas. Cada uno se adapta igual de bien, ya sea al frente,
proporcionando apoyo rítmico al otro, o igualando el lirismo de su
compañero mientras toca la cabeza de una canción. Una vigorizante "Three
Little Words" presenta a los dos magistrales guitarristas con una
floritura, seguida de una ligera toma de "Jersey Bounce", la bluesera
"Two Funky People" y el pavoneante dúo acústico "Test Pilot". Bucky
aparece en dos miniaturas sin acompañamiento, "My Romance" y la
raramente escuchada "For Whom the Bell Tolls". Muy recomendable.
