Paquito D'Rivera Funk Tango CD Notes



The great Paquito d'Rivera does it again with 2007's FUNK TANGO. Contrary to what the title implies, the compositions on this set are neither tango-steeped nor explicitly funky. Instead, d'Rivera leads a top-shelf ensemble through post-bop, Afro-Cuban jazz, and Brazilian forms, and other styles plucked from the jazz vocabulary to be tasted, tested, and re-combined at will. The appearance of a tune by tango master Astor Piazolloa, and the title track by pianist Alon Yavnai (who performs it as a duet with d'Rivera) made good on the album's name. D'Rivera, as always, is riveting on both saxophone and clarinet.

Paquito D'Rivera: Hector Del Curto (bandoneon); Paquito D'Rivera (alto saxophone); Diego Urcola (trumpet); Ed Simon, Fernando Otero, Alon Yavnai (piano); Oscar Stagnaro (bass guitar); Mark Walker (drums); Pablo Stagnaro (cajon drums); Pernell Saturnino (percussion).

Funk Tango CD Review



Down Beat (p.68) - 3 stars out of 5 -- "[A] fine, tightly wrought CD....A solid snapshot of where he sees himself today."
JazzTimes (p.94) - "D'Rivera is on fire throughout on both his instruments. Urcola impresses in a Miles-flavored style on trumpet as well as his debut on valve trombone."

5 stars Great!
Looks like, or rather, sounds like Paquito tried extra hard to put together a real winner for his own label . . .and succeeded!
