Sam Kirmayer: In This Moment

Warm toned guitarist Sam Kirmayer puts out a swinging session with Al McLean/ts, Muhammad Abdul Al-Khabyyr/tb, Sean Fyfe/p, Alec Walkington/b and Andre’ White/dr on a hip set of originals. He doesn’t hog the show, giving space to Al-Al-Khabyyer on the easy paced “Sleight Of Hand” and letting McLean get out in front with his Coltranesque tone on the muscular “Cross Purpose”. Kirmayer himself unites with the glassy Fyfe on the deft “The New Same Old” and is sassy on “Lost In The City”, stretching out with Walkington on the strutting “Blues For Proskurov”. No chaser needed on this one-it goes down smoothly.
