Jackson contributes “Excerpt of Tina III,” “Sacred Love,” “Going Bush” and “Park Slope.” His compositions are interesting and well developed. Bassist Marius adds “Mangrove Do Re Mi” and “Madras Parallel.” His bass lines are spot on and solid as a rock. This CD combines elements of funk, swing, and latin styles. The trio definitely works well together and creates an interesting fifty three minutes of music together. Ron Jackson has a distinct sound and voice to offer and is well worth a listen. |
