Guitar Music of Kemal Belevi
Belevi's arrangements provide a charming presentation of a musical
culture largely unknown to western guitarists. The rhythm driven
Canakkale is a safe opening while Efem with its drone bass and
phrygian seconds takes us deeper into an exotic and picturesque
world of hypnotic melodies.

Drunk 'n' Homeless
The band consists of Chad Strentz vcl/gtr; Pete Farrugia
gtr; Fox bs; Paul Atkinson dms. There are 14 tracks on offer
here including the 3 on their earlier sampler with 10 originals
and 4 covers. The style is modern and West Coastish but there
are other influences which show up in some numbers.
The CD kicks off with the title track, a song whose storyline
I can relate to and which gives us the first of a number of
tasty solos from Pete. There's more stinging guitar on the
rocker "Yours For Good". Sam Cooke's ballad "Wonderful
World" has to be a standout track with just guitar and
Chad's vocals which are simply excellent. "Time Will
Tell" uses an Elmore type riff, whereas "Living
To Work" has a calypso beat, another song I can relate
to, the term 'day job' seems to involve all 24 hours these
days! Other standouts include the moody "Ten Minutes
To Midnight", the slow "Only Getting Second Best"
- more excellent vocals here - and the mid-paced "Never
Get To Heaven", which features Pete's guitar work. I
also liked "When Push Comes To Shove" with its heavy
beat, a much tougher number.
The rhythm section lay down a solid foundation for Pete's
lead guitar work. Chad's vocals are expressive, particularly
on the slower numbers such as "Wonderful World"
and "Second Best". As I said in the last review,
excellent vocals as expected and tasty guitar work also as
expected. Recommended, see this band and buy the CD! Rating:
9.

Public Supply

Fume
Classing themselves as electro jazz explorations, Public
Supply kick off the album with Sivek Calling. A moody and
brooding piece with a radio-type voice in the back of the
mix. I've always been a sucker for this kind of 'ambience',
and it works well here. Nanino is the 2nd track, and we're
into a kind of late night fusion that displays some excellent
playing, especially the sax (and the guitar); the pedigree
of this band is pretty impressive. Their own description of
the music is falling between Miles Davis' electric period
and European film noir. Well, not too sure where this strange
land is, but I can relate very much to the Davis electric
period. I suppose the track, Altair, fits in with the Film
Noir, as it paints an almost cinematic backdrop with slight
hints of Crimson's jazzier pieces. Palisander, Guano republic
and Sub System 6 are well worked out pieces and whilst we
haven't had much jazz on the dropping zone at Modern Dance,
this release has made for a welcome return to a genre that
is often overlooked or completely ignored. Not quite as experimental
as many a 'new' jazz album, but more an album of musicians
who can play well, and don't need to shoot off at tangents
to prove they can (or not as the case may be). Ever so gently
restrained, but enjoyable and highly inventive. (Dave W)
