Yahel - Hoenig - Moreno - Blake - Jazz Side of the Moon (The Music of Pink Floyd) [2008]

After the King Crimson Songbook, here is another Jazz tribute to a great band. This time, one of the greatest of all time - Pink Floyd. They say that "great musicians do tributes to greater musicians". In this case, the sentence is right. Sam Yahel, Ari Hoenig, Mike Moreno and Seamus Blake have done their best to show a descent, jazzy respect to their colleagues from Pink Floyd, and at the end, all of it to represent one of the best Pink Floyd tributes ever made. After the Vocomotion - Dark Side of the Moon (A Capella), Jazz Side of the Moon is the second PF tribute that is a Must Have piece of music. I leave others to judge whether this is good, or not so good tribute, so don't be shy to leave some comments behind...I now leave you to the comments from more competent people from the world of music:

"Sam Yahel is clearly one of the most promising new organists on the New York City and international scene..." - Michael G. Nascos, Jazziz

"Ari Hoenig is a magician!" - Batteur Magazine

"(Mike Moreno) is a versatile and increasingly prominent guitarist..." - The New York Times

"Seamus Blake is gaining increasing recognition as one of the finest and most creative young players emerging in jazz." - All About Jazz

This is so cool. I discovered Sam Yahel through Torben Waldorff's Afterburn recently. I will definitely get this album.
