Despite rare appearances, Greenwich is one of Canada's truly major
jazz figures.... a passionate soloist who has developed both hiso
wn technique and musical language.
Peter Goddard, The Toronto Star |
On one hand Sonny Greenwich is a powerhouse of improvisational
jazz guitar, and on the other he is a tremendous song craftsman.
His lines are lyrical, even when they may often require some digestion
before the listener can make the connection between their direction
and that of the melodies presented by bassist Gene Perla and pianist
Don Thompson. Reaching into all areas of soloing and using a number
of picking variations, Greenwich showcases some of his finest composition
and improvisation work on the opening track, "Time-Space."
The remaining five pieces are no less awesome -- true testimony
to his ability to balance improvised and preconceived lines with
exceptional finesse.
TM, Guitar Player |
Sonny's mystical sound, especially combined with his own compositions,
is guaranteed to put you in a trance with no outside help... Hats
off to PM for releasing this one.
Willard Jenkins, Jr., Cleveland J.R. |
In a recital of pieces from the jazz repetoire, popular standards,
and his own compositions, he demonstrates that his distinctive approach
can be equally effective in a variety of musical contexts.
C.J.S., Jazz Echo |
Mr. Greenwich's compositions tend to have a serpentine circuitous
and spacey nature about them with the guitarists giving the illusion
of jumping in and out midair, so to speak, with his improvisations.
Yet with all the lightness and movement Greenwich plays with a pleasant,
almost seductive, fat sound which gives great substance to his almost
mystical and transitory improvisatory lines... There is plenty to
listen to here and repeatedly so.
Bob Rusch, Cadence |
He's fast as lightning and he writes interesting things. He's
assisted here by piano, bass and drums but the way the music comes
out you'd swear it was more people.
