[Dixielandjazz] Randy reinhart's Arbors CD

[Gerard Bielderman]

Randy Reinhart's recent Arbors CD has been mentioned more than one time as a 
top production. However, all reviews or opinions are always subjective. For 
instance, the reviewer in the Dutch Dr. Jazz Magazine writes:
"What will these excellent musicians prove with a title like Blues my 
naughty.... of 10 minutes? The whole programme is something like a 
semi-organised jam session. And that's a pity for how that sounds, we do 
know: just a bit too much without engagement and a bit bloodless. The 
ballads come across a bit pale and the fast numbers appear - despite the 
excellent soloists - to go on the automatic pilot."
I hasten to add that I like the CD very much, especially the Yellow Dog 
Blues.
