Piltch & Davis + Friends - Take One
Review by Natalie Martinez
Take One, the latest album by Piltch & Davis + Friends, is a captivating and soulful collection of jazz tunes that showcases the band's exceptional musicianship and creativity. The album features a range of original compositions and covers, each infused with the band's signature blend of improvisation, groove, and melody.
From the opening track "Mack the Knife" to the closing number "The Nearness of You," the album takes listeners on a journey through various moods and styles, from upbeat swing to introspective ballads. The musicianship on display is impeccable, with each member of the band contributing their unique voice and style to the mix.
Throughout the album, bassist Jim Piltch and pianist John Davis provide a solid foundation for the other musicians to build upon, while saxophonist Bob Sheppard, trumpeter Walt Fowler, and drummer Alex Acuna deliver virtuosic solos that showcase their individual talents. The guest appearances by vocalists Tierney Sutton and Becca Stevens add another layer of depth and emotion to the album.
