The album consists mainly of long tracks that play with melodies till exhaustion by amazing performers, no doubt. However, the long tracks don\u2019t make it an ideal or memorable listen. With fairly smooth tones and relaxed interpretations, only skilled or intense listeners will find their pathway through the narrow and guided precision that is this album. The usual construction of instrumentation misses one important part, a large bass presence. With the album mainly focusing on upper register, the lack of range give the ear its fair share of running lines and melodies. Impressive, yes. Long, yes. Fun, that\u2019s for someone else to say.<br \/>\n<b><br \/>\nRecommended If You Like: Nels Cline Singers, Esperanza Spalding, Miles Davis<br \/>\nRecommended Tracks: Any<br \/>\nDo Not Play: None<br \/>\nWritten by TJ Duncan on 02\/21\/2017 <\/b><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A jazz album in its own right, David Weiss\u2019s project is a long cup of coffee and a nice summer\u2019s day sit down album.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":18123,"featured_media":55881,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[183,4,3235],"tags":[6816,641,6818,6817],"class_list":["post-55880","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-jazz-rotation","category-music","category-music-reviews","tag-david-weiss-and-point-of-departure","tag-jazz","tag-smooth-jazz","tag-wake-up-call"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/a0875233200_10.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/55880","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/18123"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=55880"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/55880\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/55881"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=55880"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=55880"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=55880"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
