Description
A stunning album by guitarist John Stein, featuring a stellar ensemble.
On 'Watershed', John Stein delivers a compelling collection of deep grooves and intricate rhythms, marking his 15th recording and 11th with Whaling City Sound. As he prepares to retire from his long teaching career at Berklee to focus on music full-time, Stein, along with his distinguished band--Frank Herzberg (bass), Zé Eduardo Nazario (drums), Daniel Grajew (keyboards), and Teco Cardoso (flute and saxophones)--brings a refined clarity and emotional depth to each track.
The album features standout tracks like the warm and inviting 'Rio Escuro,' the quiet funk of Pat Martino's 'Cisco,' and the breezily melodic 'Wally.' Stein's intricate guitar work and the band's collective contribution reveal the magic hidden within these grooves. 'Watershed' showcases Stein's ability to unveil the soul of the songs while highlighting the delicate beauty of his band's performance.
This recording is a testament to Stein's artistic evolution and a precursor to his future musical explorations, demonstrating lyricism and clarity that elevate his craft.
