I just had the opportunity to review the most recent release, Life Got In The Way, by Heather McKay and it's great. Opening with You Make Me Smile, Leonardo Lucini and Leland Nakamura on bass and drums respectively lay down a firm Latin rhythm reinforced by Campbell Charshee on keys, Peter Fraize on sax and Bruno Lucini on percussion. Heather McKay breaks away with a really tasty guitar solo with crisp riffs and plenty of flair. Fraizee really takes advantage of the Latin rhythm with an energetic solo of his own making for a super opener. Narraguagus Bay is an easy, relaxing track with a killer bass solo by Lucini and a wailing guitar solo by McKay. Strong tonal harmonies really blend nicely. Excellent! Run is a cool Latin fusion track with a strong bass line and super keys punctuation. With a ripping guitar lead by McKay and smoking drumming by Nakamura joined by Fraize this track is hot. Wrapping the release is heavy salsa influenced, Lucini in The Park. McKay really mixes it up on this one with jazz and Spanish guitar styling. Bruno on percussion adds super spice and Fraize creates super counter melody. Solid contributions by Fraize, Charshee, Nakamura and Lucini make this a spectacular closer.
