Review: Guitarist Corban’s latest disc is styled mostly on straight-ahead mid-sixties Blue Note jazz, half played with the Aperturistic Trio & half where the four are joined by blazing tenor saxophonist Jerry Bergonzi. Their tight chemistry is on full display here, both when Corban’s fleet fingers produce dazzling solos and when Bergonzi blows like a raging storm. It’s a solid combination of fire and finesse.
