DOOM JAZZ - CD
Swami Lateplate: Bobby Previte + Jamie Saft
The Doom Jazz was out there. The bearded man cannot help you. All you can do is listen.
"What jumps out most is Previte's drumming. Every cymbal vibration and snare snap leaps to the foreground and,
with rare exception, decays before the next strike, as much a testament to Previte's assured playing as Saft's engineering.
The sound throughout is bright and super present." -- All About Jazz. Veal Records (2007) $15
