'Maverick'
Carli Munoz (Pelosonel Q Lo)
An album featuring bassist Eddie Gomez and drummer Jack DeJohnette has some strong elements right at the start. But "Maverick" features fine piano work from Carli Munoz and guest visits from sax star David Sanchez and clarinetist Don Byron. Five of the nine tunes are original and are highlighted by Munoz's "Three Little Steps to Heaven," a takeoff on the Miles Davis piece of a similar name. It also features a fluid solo from Byron. But "Entre Nous," with its deceptive rhythm probably is the best of the album.
