New 2025 World Fusion & World Beat Albums

Hard Believer

Album due in 5 weeks or so. Sample included "Broken English" and "On The Weeds". Guitar driven material, a bit harder in the "Broken English" track, that might not be enjoyable for the average jazz folks that are not used to hearing guitar excursions to areas that are often thought as part of the hard rock music, that is not jazz, and often thought as a bit on the thrashing side. However, in the next sample, it is much softer and jazz'y and not crazy as in the first sample. Looks like an interesting album is on the way, though my comment on the first track seems harsh ... it is not meant to be ... it is still nice, but very different from a jazz like work in my mind ... but, really, I'm a jazz novice if truth be told and my reactions are honest to my experience with music.
