Jay Soto – Long Time Coming (CD)
Sound: B Music:
C+
Jay Soto is yet another artist in the Latin Jazz Pop field
going solo after establishing himself otherwise. Besides drum programming, he performs al the guitars and
keyboards for Long Time Coming, his new CD. Except for the final track, all the songs are all-new to this
set. Though done sincerely and
professionally with some obvious skill, the result is a surprisingly homogenized
work that has limited distinction and does not stay with you.
The PCM 2.0 16Bit/44.1kHz Stereo is nicely recorded though
and if you decide you like Jazz in the Kenny G mode, you can visit www.jsotomusic.com to learn more and
order. This critic just does not like
Jazz unless it has some real edge. At
least it is sonically competent.
