Review

Time to journey again with your favorite creatures as Mo’ Animals creates Jazz/World Fusion impressions of exotic animals from around the world. From the dense jungle of Monkeys to the down-home barnyard of Pigs, this compact disc composed and produced by Frank Macchia captures the spirit of these wonderful creatures, along with brilliant solo performances by such jazz heavyweights as Howard Levy, Billy Childs,Vinnie Colaiuta, Dave Carpenter, Grant Geissman, Bruce Fowler, Wayne Bergeron, Valarie King, Ken Kugler, Alex Iles, Larry Hall and Tracy London. A follow-up to his critically acclaimed Animals of 2004, Mo’ Animals features Macchia on saxophones, flutes, clarinets, ocarinas and synthesizers. Says Jazziz Magazine of Animals, “an exceptional contemporary jazz recording by an inventive composer and arranger who deserves comparisons to Gil Evans and Pat Metheny.” Frank is featured on alto, tenor and baritone saxophones, as well as some unusual woodwinds: the bass and contrabass flute, alto, bass and contrabass clarinet, and bass ocarinas. There's even an electric bass clarinet solo! So, whether it makes you see Hummingbirds darting around the flowers, Frogs hopping through the rainforest, or Whales ambling through the sea, this collection of songs is a zoological jazzfest for the ears.
