Our Take

Barney Kessel and Harold Land's latest collaboration, "El Tigre / Time Will Tell," is a jazz fusion masterpiece that defies expectations and pushes boundaries in the best ways possible.

From the moment the first notes hit your ears, you are transported to a world where smooth guitar licks and groovy saxophone solos reign supreme. Kessel's guitar work is nothing short of legendary, with his nimble fingers caressing the strings with the precision of a surgeon. And let's not forget about Land's saxophone skills – the man can blow like nobody's business.

The album is a rollercoaster of emotions, with tracks like "El Tigre" hitting you hard with its funky rhythms and infectious energy, while "Time Will Tell" slows things down and lets you bask in its melancholic beauty. The chemistry between Kessel and Land is palpable, with each musician complementing the other's strengths perfectly.

Overall, "El Tigre / Time Will Tell" is a must-listen for both jazz enthusiasts and casual listeners alike. It's a testament to the power of collaboration and the magic that can happen when two musical geniuses come together. So grab a glass of wine, sit back, and let Barney Kessel and Harold Land take you on a sonic journey you won't soon forget. Cheers to that, old chums!
