Review

Steve Yeager's third release on Collective Vibe Records, shows this artists best work to date, combining the rarely recorded combination of Vibes and Hammond B-3 Organ. These instruments together provide a texture that is unique and instantly appealing…a fresh sound in today's scene.

Hard swinging standards, up-tempo Bop tunes, and a tango treatment of Bacharachs "The Look of Love" showcase Yeager's ability and prowess as an improviser and arranger. He contributes two original compositions to the mix, showing a flair for catchy tunes and conjuring images of the Modern Jazz Quartet bopping in on a cool West Coast breeze.

Yeager continues to cultivate a style on the Vibes that is clearly his own, a two mallet technique that shows an affinity for the blues and a lyricism that summons an emotional response like few other vibes players.

For this session, Yeager includes the Cleveland Ohio native Tony Monaco on Hammond B-3, a fiery player with roots in the Jimmy Smith style of B-3 Organ. St.Paul sidemen Clay Moore on guitar and Phil Hey on drums round out this fine quartet.

New Groove Blues will prove to be a crowd pleaser.

Sonically hip. . . . . . Instantly new
