Reviews ~~~~~~~ By Bruce Lee Gallanter http://search2.downtownmusicgallery.com/lookup.cgi?item=2012_12_06_20_34_26 [...] Commencing with "Why Would a Whale Act Like This?", the sextet is off and running. With no piano in sight, Vinnie has the guitar fronted rhythm team keeping everything in focus with solid, yet quirky arrangements for the three horns and inspired solos from each. The interplay between the horns and the guitar is always intricate. Golia is a master of composing layers of of complex, contrapuntal horn riffs with interlocking lines. The music here is pretty progressive and involves diverse strategies. On "Photoshoot, One, Two", Vinnie plays a fine slow-burning bari solo while Noyce's guitar plays elegant, dreamy notes underneath. Trumpeter Dan Rosenboom is yet another great soloist and has a couple of his own CDs on the Nine Winds label that I look forward to checking out. With many less discs coming out on Nine Winds, it has given Mr. Golia a chance to compose wealth of great music. Hence, this disc is 76+ minutes long and is filled to the brim with great music. Certainly too much to describe here but worthy of your patient consideration. -- By Paul Acquaro http://www.freejazzblog.org/2012/06/vinny-golia-sextet-abstractions-and.html By Massimo Ricci http://www.squidsear.com/cgi-bin/news/newsView.cgi?newsID=1479 By Ed Hazell http://www.pointofdeparture.org/PoD40/PoD40MomentsNotice.html
