Reviewed: 2020—03-10 Genre: Jazz FCCs: none Review: Not what I expected. This is ukulele maestro Shimabukuro taking his instrument in a whole new direction: electric jazz fusion. Of course, he is brilliant here, as well. All originals except 7, 8, 10, & 13 If You Like: Al Di Meola electric, Mahavishnu Orchestra, Bob Brozman, Cyril Pahinui, David Gilmour Track Review (favorites denoted by *): *1/ When The Masks Come Down – electric ukulele starts quietly & uptempo> morphs into rocking uptempo electric fusion jam> quick fade 2/ Twelve – ukulele starts slow, quickly swings ingot fast tempo electric jam> fade *3/ Resistance – synth starts> shimmering midtempo electric fusion jam build to a climax & fades *4/ Lament – ukulele starts quietly: midtempo space jam with a Pink Floyd vibe> fade 5/ Red Crystal – ukulele starts> fast tempo electric jam> quick stop *6/ Morning Blue – synth starts slow & quiet> slow tempo space jam builds in volume & fades **7/ Summer Rain – ukulele starts> gorgeous midtempo jam> quick fade *8/ Wish You Were Here – synth/ukulele starts> midtempo space jam> slow fade 9/ Fireflies – electric uke slide starts> slow bluesy jam> slow fade **10/ Wai’ale – guitar starts> beautiful mellow jam with slide ukulele> quick fade *11/ On The Wing – guitar starts> beautiful mellow midtempo jam with slide ukulele> quick fade **12/ Strong In Broken Places – synth starts> expansive midtempo space jam> fade *13/ Landslide – ukulele starts> midtempo song with spacey underbed builds in volume to climax& fades | ||
