WEB MAX

Description

A VIRTUOSIC ALBUM OF SPIRITUAL JAZZ. FEAT. MULATU ASTATKE, BRANDEE YOUNGER, CHARLES TOLLIVER & YUSEF LATEEF. 'Web Max', the fourth album by Web Web, is a grand work of spiritual jazz - at times ethereal, at times moving, always intense, and a magnificent tribute to early 70s jazz. Roberto Di Gioia, the mastermind behind Web Web, is joined for the first time by Max Herre as composer, musician, and producer. Together, they united with great musicians such as Mulatu Astatke, Brandee Younger, Charles Tolliver (Strata East), and others to deliver a virtuosic masterpiece. On "Akinuba / The Heart," we can hear the voice of Yusef Lateef, the saxophonist and flutist who passed away in 2013. Signed to Compost Records, Michael Reinboth's label, 'Web Max' is the fourth album in four years from the quartet comprising keyboardist and pianist Roberto Di Gioia, saxophonist Tony Lakatos, bassist Christian von Kaphengst, and drummer Peter Gall, all long-standing musicians of the highest virtuosity.
