Amit Friedman plays mostly tenor and a bit of soprano sax with his core team of Tom Oren/p, Gilad Abro/b, Yonatan Rosen/dr and guests Rony Iwryn/perc, Doran Talmon/voc and Joca Perpignan/voc on this mix of moods of mostly originals.
Friedman shows his warm tone and clean intonation on a duet with the Bill Evansy piano of Oren on " Rill-Cool" while the Oren goes dark to Friedman's fluffy notes on the title track. Rony Iwryn's percussion sizzles along with Perpignan on the pretty Brazilian "Alma" while Amos Hoffman's oud brings some exotic flavor to "Sunset". Doran Talmon is folksy along with Rosen's brushes on "Stride By Stride". A take of Paul McCartney's "Junk" is a cozy and Old World waltz, closing a fresh session.
