  • Description

    One of the most formidable fretless electric bassists in the post-Jaco Pastorius era, Texas native and current Barcelona resident Gary Willis joins forces with Catalan keyboardist Albert Bover and Budapest-born drummer Gergo Borlai on this exhilarating take on the electric piano trio.

    Co-founder (with guitarist Scott Henderson) of the premiere fusion band Tribal Tech and former member of Wayne Shorter's band, Willis and his highly interactive crew shift deftly from slamming funk ("Old School") to percolating fusion ("Disconnectivity") to aggressive swingers ("Change Agent", "Move") while embracing quiet ballads (Paul McCandless' "Amaryllis", Milton Nascimento's evocative "Tarde" or Willis' aptly-titled "Dream") with uncommon sensitivity and a lyrical touch.

    They also turn in expressive interpretations of the Lennon-McCartney classic "Norwegian Wood" and Bill Evans' "We Will Meet Again" amongst others.

    Personnel: Gary Willis (bass), Albert Bover (keyboardist), Gergo Borlai (drums)
