| Joe Locke is considered the most gifted vibraphonist of his generation. His international reputation as a player, composer, band leader and conceptualist has been further enhanced recently by the accolades he has received for his touring and recording projects (voted one of the top ten CDs of 2003 by DownBeat magazine, honoured with the Jazz Journalists Association Award for “Mallet Player of the Year”, reported on the renowned Penguin Encyclopedia of Jazz, and always worldwide on the main newspapers).
Released under the label Jazz Eyes, Locke’s Sticks and Strings features resonant bassist Jay Anderson, fine drummer Joe LaBarbera, and the amazing harmonic structures created by New York born guitar player Jonathan Kreisberg: the nine tunes herein provide the perfect atmosphere for Locke’s brilliant and intense voice. |
