Joe Deninzon's virtuosic violin playing
adds an elegant grace and down-home spunk to the rest of the
musicians' fusion grooves. On this live album recorded in Erie,
Pennsylvania, Deninzon run through several numbers of hot jazz
rock, highlighted by some dazzling playing by the members of
Stratospherius (a variation of Stradivarius-get it, Deninzon'a
violinist)-guitarist Jake Ezra, bassist Ron Baron, and drummer
Luciana Padmore. In additiono to several of his originals, Deninzon's
also does a rip-roaring version of the Simpson's theme and an
acid-funk take on Stevie Wonder's Contusion. Fusion music may
not be everyone's bag (there is some people out there who revile
it), but this album might prove the contrary through the amazing
musicianship.
