Michael Landau, Robben Ford, Jimmy Haslip e Gary Novak - Renegade Creation
Quatro
veteranos se juntam e só o que se podia esperar é boa música. Com
Robben Ford nos vocais e guitarra e Jimmy Haslip no baixo, a idéia é que
sairia algo extremamente influenciado pelo jazz. Jazz não é a
influência principal mas é uma influência. Unindo Haslip com Ford mais
Landau e Novak temos é um forte trabalho de blues-rock, mais para um
blues hard rock, com uma pitada de jazz fusion.
Vale a pena ouvir do início ao fim.
Renegade Creation - Bullet
Assumindo
como nome da banda o título do primeiro trabalho, Michael Landau,
Robben Ford, Jimmy Haslip e Gary Novak lançam um segundo trabalho
chamado "Bullet".
Continuando
o ótimo trabalho do primeiro álbum, temos mais blues rock com pitadas
de jazz fusion. A banda nos brinda com um das melhores combinações
baixo-bateria dos tempos atuais. Composições bem arranjadas, solos de
guitarra deliciosos e uma exibição de sinergia entre os quatro raramente
encontrada na música de hoje.
Copiando a idéia de colocar um trecho de texto em inglês (+ a preguiça de traduzir...), segue a ficha dos caras:
Michael
Landau is a renowned session guitarist and solo artist who has played
on albums since the early 1980s by such notable artists as Miles Davis,
Michael Jackson, Richard Marx, Joni Mitchell, Steve Perry, Seal, James
Taylor, Laura Branigan and many others. Robben Ford began his recording
career in the ‘70’s with the Charles Ford Band, a blues band with his
highly musical siblings.
Robben
Ford has progressed more as a player and he has delved deeper into
Jazz, joining Tom Scott’s band in 1974. After more than 30 years as a
solo artist, Ford is widely regarded as one of the greatest guitarists
in the world.
Jimmy Haslip
is an in demand bassist and record producer, known by many fusion fans
as a founding member of the pioneering fusion group, “Yellowjackets.” He
was one of the first high profile players to routinely use a 5-string
electric bass. Haslip has worked with many notable artists, including
Tommy Bolin, Marty Friedman, Bruce Hornsby, Gino Vannelli, Allan
Holdsworth, Chaka Khan, Donald Fagen and Anita Baker. He continues to be
one of the most in demand bassists in the industry.
Gary
Novak was born into a musical household and began drumming at age
eight. After years of studying and working as a drummer he landed a gig
with George Benson and subsequently joined Chick Corea’s band. He has
also toured with many highly acclaimed musicians including Bob Berg and
Allan Holdsworth. In 1998 he joined Canadian pop star Alanis
Morissette’s band, recording and touring with her for over a year.
Um abraço!
