Laszlo Gardony plays piano and melodica with bassist John Lockwood and drummer Yoron Israel on this album of mostly originals. Israel’s drums seem to stick out in front, and sound a big heavy handed throughout, funky on the upbeat “Irrepressible” and giving a rapid run to “Hopeful Vision”. His kalimba adds to the exotic atmosphere of the elliptical “Times of Discord”, with Gardony’s melodica bringing in spice. Gardony asserts himself on “Cedar Tree Dance” and is pretty on “All That Remains” while Lockwood gets some time in the spotlight on ”Cold Earth” and Walking In Silence”. The big beat.
