Our Take

In the latest musical offering from the ALAN BARNES / PAT MCCARTHY OCTET & JOSIE MOON, "Fish Tales," we are taken on a delightful journey through the depths of jazz and storytelling. From the moment the album kicks off with the funky "Sardine Shuffle," you know you're in for a wild ride.

Barnes' saxophone skills are on full display throughout the album, weaving in and out of McCarthy's intricate guitar riffs with ease. The addition of Moon's ethereal vocals adds an extra layer of richness to the already lush soundscapes created by the octet.

Tracks like "Cod's Lament" and "The Trout Whisperer" showcase the group's unique blend of traditional jazz elements with modern influences, creating a sound that is both nostalgic and fresh. Each song tells its own story, painting vivid images of underwater adventures and whimsical fish tales.

But don't be fooled by the whimsical album title and playful track names - "Fish Tales" is a serious piece of musical mastery. The arrangements are tight, the musicianship is top-notch, and the overall vibe is nothing short of infectious.

In conclusion, ALAN BARNES / PAT MCCARTHY OCTET & JOSIE MOON have really reeled us in with "Fish Tales." It's a must-listen for jazz enthusiasts and storytelling aficionados alike. So grab your fishing rod, cast your line, and dive into this musical ocean of delights.
