Jazz at the Launch Party, Goa Marriott Resorte. A single-minded devotedness to contemporary jazz music can be a lifetime involvement, and moreover when you hear the flawless rendition of this time-tested music by the 'golden oldies' themselves, the exposure transcends the realms of inspiration, and eclat, bodering on gratification to acknowledge that the music of yore has secured its pedestal of unending glory.
Colin D'Cruz on Bass and Lester Godinho on percussions. The 29.01 minutes CD begins with "Route 66", it is the intricacy and expertise of Colin on the Bass guitar that sets the tempo with his superb beginning bars at the outset, with their own progressions making headways for the songs to attain the mightful mellifluousness. However I remembered Astrude Gilberto, her husband and Antonio Carlos Jobin when Belinda, and the magnificient trio belted out "The girl from Ipanema (A garota de Ipanema) with gusto. The impressive trio brilliantly flourished the dazzling 'Bossa nova' into ebullient 'Samba' with Lester taking the centre stage.
Belinda and George. Belinda gives you an impression that Ella lives just next door. "Don't get around much anymore", "The more I see you", and "Avalon" are the usual numbers which are meant and crafted for the 'hepcats." Being romantic at heart nothing better could come my way than the evergreen "Georgia" for my world to stand still. At that moment I felt like going to a 'Bistro' to drown away my blues, for the song gave the charisma of an nostalgic soul with an yearning heart, with George on the ivories meriting the right disposition to his feminine name sake.
