Title - ... Or What?
Artist - Gerald Gradwohl
For those unaware, what sounds like a “Who’s Who” in the present jazzrock/fusion scene, is actually the lineup for electric guitarist Gerald Gradwohl’s new album ... Or What?
Gerald has worked with Kirk Covington since 2002, when they recorded the album “ABQ” with Bob Berg, and Gary Willis, the album making big waves in the fusion scene. The idea to make a mutual album with Adam and Kirk was given birth during the tour in 2014, and could now finally be realized this year.
Modern recording techniques have made it possible to capture these exceptional musicians together on this album. The sessions and what was captured cannot be described in words here. You’ll just have to hear the recording for yourself!

This brand new recording opens on the hauntingly ethereal, at first, abounding and expressive latterly, Paradoxon and then we get the forthright funk of Cheap Chunk, the languishing beauty found within The Colour Of Magic and the driving force that is Unterwurzacher.
Along next on this Jazz, Rock and Funk musical concoction, is the grooved funk licks of What Are We Gonna Do Tomorrow which is in turn backed by the more studious Still There, the album closing on the vibrantly electric, prog-tastic The Course, closing on the propulsive Gerephitti.
