Ouch! OK, the clip you provided was alright, but I could only take about 20 seconds of the first myspace song. It was one thing when the bass was out of tune, but the woodwind too, ouch! They sound very amateur. Is this a real pro band that plays paying gigs and puts out CDs on a real label?

from myspace:BioZaviot was created in 1986 in Tel Aviv by Harold Rubin, Mark Smulian, Tommy Bellman and Reuben Hoch. The group performed throughout Israel and represented jazz from Israel throughout Europe. Zaviot recorded 3 albums on Jazzis Records which featured guest artists Christoph Spendel and Dave Liebman. The group toured Germany and other parts of Europe during the years 1987, 1988 and in 1989 with the late saxophone great, Jim Pepper. Zaviot appeared at Jazz Ost West, Leverkussen Jazz Fest, Nuremberg Jazz festival to name a few. Zaviot has composed all original material throughout the years. The group features Harold Rubin on clarinet , a versatile artist who is recognized for his paintings and architectural design. Harold is a recent recipient of Israerl's respected Landau Award for musical excellence. At age 75, he continues to charter new artistic territory in both music and art. Bassist, Mark Smulian received his education at the Mannes College of Music in New York. He has developed a reputation as one of Israel's great musicians and composers and is fully involved with music production focusing on the ‘Wolrd Music’ scene. He is very active at his Kfar Saba recording studio. Credits include: Mosh Ben Ari (gold Album) Shotei HaNevua, Music for the Israel Festival, WhiteFlag-the first Palestinian Israeli band in the world and many more… Guitarist, Arli Lieberman at age 21 is the newest member of the group. He fashions himself after guitarists the likes of John Scoffield, Jimmy Page and Jimi Hendrix. This young player is well above his years and shows great promise. He has contributed greatly to Zaviot's unique improvisational approach. Drummer, Reuben Hoch returned to the US in 1988 to pursue his musical career. His credits include; The Chassidic Jazz Project, Reuben Hoch and Time, West End Avenue, Dave Liebman, Jim Pepper, Jeff Andrews, Greg Osby, Ron McClure, Don Friedman, Ed Schuller, Lonnie Plaxico, Christoph Spendel, Leni Stern amongst others. He currently resides in South Florida and is highly respected on the jazz scene. In February 2008, Zaviot reunited for a 20-year reunion album. The group also performed in Tel Aviv at Levontin 7. Zaviot now presents itself as a very strong musical force that looks forward to the release of a new CD and touring. .. ............Myspace------------- I think the problem with a lot of the fusion music is that it's extremely predictable, it's a rock rhythm and the solos all play the same stuff and they play it over and over again ...
