Both individually and as a group, the members of the Dave Weckl Band went through many changes during the making of the aptly titled TRANSITION. The most obvious differences are the replacement of Weckl's longtime keyboard cohort Jay Oliver with the talented Steve Weingart, and the subtraction of guitarist Buzzy Feiten. Weckl, too, makes a few adjustments in his approach this time around, adding a plethora of percussion instruments to his already formidable drum kit arsenal.

Musically, the group gets along just fine. Weckl's famed high-powered drumming is in its usual stellar form as he pulls off jaw-dropping feats of agility and speed. Weingart is a welcome addition, providing tasteful keyboard work throughout, and ably filling the role of the lone harmonic backdrop with some impressive solo spots. Weckl's boyhood buddy Tom Kennedy returns on bass, fitting seamlessly into the leader's contemporary rhythms. Finally, the veteran Brandon Fields reprises his role as the melody man, punching out funky lines and blowing memorable solos. Highlights include the popping opener "Wake Up," the frenetic "Mild Hysteria," and the nicely sparse ballad "Passion."

Average Rating: (5 out of 5 stars) 5 stars

5 stars Fusion like none other!
I love this band, but more so this album in particular. It has such a warm and full bodied sound. The melodies are superb and the rhythms are infectious. One of my top five all time albums. HIGHLY recommended.

5 stars Brilliant!
This CD shows us what high energy drumming is. Dave Weckl has to be one of the great drummers of our time, and this CD shows us why. From the catchy tune "Wake Up", to the beautiful ballad, "Passion". This CD gives us great music. I actually prefer this CD to Perpetual Motion. Dave Weckl seems to go from strength to strength.

Dave Weckl's recording career as a leader was off to a decent start with Master Plan -- not a fantastic start, but a decent one. The drummer had made a name for himself playing with Chick Corea's fusion-oriented Elektric Band and his straight-ahead Akoustic Band, and his admirers greeted this CD with high expectations. ...

Toss into the musical blender the spirits of Stevie Wonder, Crusaders, Van Halen, Sting, Dr. John, and Chick Corea; turn on the fire, low for easy simmering blues-rock at times, high for a fiery intensity that busts the borders between R&B and fusion. The result: the Dave Weckl Band's hard-to-categorize ...

Dianne Reeves represents a multitude of styles and approaches, ranging from pop to R&B to straight jazz. The Best of Dianne Reeves provides the listener with a generous collection that emphasizes these opposites. "Better Days" from Dianne Reeves, along with "You Taught My Heart to Sing" and the title cut from I Remember, are light and pretty, emphasizing her ability as a ballad singer. Much more interesting are "Endangered Species" and "Old Souls" from Art & Survival. Backed by infectious rhythms, textured arrangements, and heavy grooves, Reeves unleashes her dynamic vocals bolstered by chants, outbursts, ...

A veteran of the music and acting business, this isn't Alyth's first album, but it might be the first to gain major recognition -- which she very richly deserves. Perhaps the nearest analogue is fellow Scot Eddi Reader, although the voices and styles are very different. But there's a similar open, warm honesty to the way they approach music. Alyth is more rooted in tradition, perhaps, with fully half this disc in the Gaelic ...
