Lorenzo Tucci - Sweet Revelation [Remastered] (2012)

One of the hardest-hitting albums we've ever heard from Italian drummer Lorenzo Tucci -- a set that's got some especially smoking tenor from Daniele Scannapieco of the High Five Quintet! Daniele's sound is proud and bold right from the start -- working with a soulful, 60s sort of energy as he carves out these massive lines on tenor that really take hold of a tune, and give it an even greater sense of feeling and form! Tucci's drums are great too -- recorded with a sharper sound than before, to provide a great illustration of his key power for moving a group -- in this case a quartet that also features piano from Pietro Lussu and bass from Dario Rosciglione. The set features great versions of the Wayne Shorter tunes "Adam's Apple" and "Fee Fi Fo Fum" -- plus the cuts "Sweet Revelation", "Dede's Song", "Ghost", "In The Wee Small Hours Of The Morning", and "Tita's Song".  © Dusty Groove, Inc.
