Customer Reviews of Trios
TRIOS: Taking the good with the bad- it depends on the playe First the good: Rob Wasserman plays a great bass, and any song you will find examples of his talent.
Hornsby's "White-Wheeled Limo" has a nice jazzy feel to it, with this particular trio in fine balance (Wasserman/Hornsby and Branford Marsalis)
All three of Wasserman's one man "Trios" are worth your time and really show off the instrument's range well.
The highlight of the CD for me: Willie Dixon's "Dustin' Off the Bass" a song that just showcases a great talent with a song that just exemplifies the skill and joy of this artist.
"Easy Answers" and "Home is Where You Get Across" don't seem to fit in with the rest of this recording, they are angrier and have a more anxious tone probably befitting the rest of the trio on each; Bob Weir/Neil Young on the former and Chris Whitley and Les Claypool on the latter (some phenomenal pickin' on this one)
Now the bad:
Brian and Carnie Wilson contribute something called "Fantasy is Reality" and it is as bad as the title suggests- slow, nonsensical lyrics and no point to its existence.
I'm a big Elvis Costello fan but his contribution is just terrible; this is another one given away by its title, "Put Your Big Toe in the Milk of Human Kindness"
Edie Brickell doing her impression of New Bohemians whimsy with the dopey song "Zillionaire" Jerry Garcia is supposed to be here someplace as well, but I couldn't listen to this more than a few times without banging my head against a speaker. Then I heard "American Popsicle" by the same pair and I want to take back what I said about "Zillionaire." This is worse. Sometimes improvisation doesn't work.
Gypsy I and II take too long to develop for short pieces. They were OK but feel out of place here.
Wasserman likes to experiment and this definitely is an experiment. I'm always willing to take the good (when it is this good) with the bad. This is why you can program CD players.
