Live at The Blue Note....

Just picked up this album after hearing the Caravan cut on an online jazz radio station. This album is quality material. I had never heard of Avishai Cohen and can now say that he and his band know how to play some solid jazz tunes. I actually purchased the CD from a store, since there is a DVD of a live show from the Blue Note Jazz Club in NYC. All of the cuts from the CD and DVD are from a series of shows that Cohen and his band played at the Blue Note last year. The musicians in his band are very talented. He has a unique style combining Israeli roots with other varied jazz genres. All original compositions except for Caravan, which is a bit lengthy but a great version nonetheless. If you are looking for some new jazz of the live show variety, this album is a solid choice.
