Aaron Comess Quintet - ST

Review by Robert B

The Aaron Comess Quintet's latest album, ST, is a musical masterpiece that showcases the band's exceptional talent and versatility. From the opening track, "Hard Ball," to the closing track, "The River," every song on the album is a testament to the musicians' skill and creativity.

Comprised of Aaron Comess on drums, Teddy Kumpel on guitar, Eliot Zigmund on saxophone, Richard Hammond on bass, and Pete Levin on keyboards, the quintet brings a unique blend of jazz, rock, and blues to the table. The album's sound is both complex and accessible, with intricate rhythms and melodies that are easy to get lost in.

One standout track on the album is "Casa Colonial," a Latin-inspired tune that features Kumpel's impressive guitar work and Zigmund's soulful saxophone solos. "The River," the album's closing track, is a hauntingly beautiful ballad that showcases Comess' drumming and Levin's keyboard skills.

Summary by Robert B

ST is a must-listen for anyone who appreciates great music. The Aaron Comess Quintet has truly outdone themselves with this album, and it is sure to be a favorite among jazz and rock fans alike.
