Another track, 'All About that Starry Dark' begins with heavy atmosphere, its theme unfolding broodingly. The follow up 'El Metate' works in a similar vein, delivered as a highly approachable song whose timeless melody is cast in a lightly muscular setting. The song is a group effort, it eschews virtuosic solos in favor of a developing a inspired group sound. Guitarist Tom Juhas plays with a clean, dry tone that distorts tastefully around the edges. Keyboardist Robbie Grunwald adds a minimalist solo that provided just enough Fender Rhodes shimmer to the song. First we hear drummer Joshua Van Tassel who creates a pretty straight ahead groove for bassist Higgins and violinist Aleksandar Gajic to fill with an inspired folk melody. The opening track is a rousing workout that readily showcases the talents of this Toronto based band. at least on the Hank Mobley.According to Tzadik's description, Brett Higgins' Atlas Revolt 'blends latin, r&b, soul, film soundtracks, jazz and more into moody and infectious grooves.' That just about wraps it up neatly - by mixing attractive klezmer modes with a strong rock backbone, Atlas Revolt fits in well with many of its label-mates, nestled somewhere between Electric Masada, the Dreamers, and Marc Ribot's Asmodeus. It wasn't as much better than the RVG redo as I had expected. Now I'm wondering about KB album I've got, which does have liner notes crediting Yoshida. I would not have done so if Yoshida's name was not involved. Either HDTracks was trying to get away with something, or management had told the web publisher to use the webpages from the original six as a template, and neglected to mention that the mastering info needed to be changed.Įither way, I'm a bit upset that I bought the Hank Mobley album based on false advertising. I can see no press releases about this last group. Sound & Vision Mag had reported the addition of Kenny Burrell/Midnight Blue, and Lee Morgan/Sidewinder as remastered by Yoshida.

I recall several press releases about the first six BN albums being remastered in HD by Alan Yoshida. Strangely, they also removed it from the Kenny Burrell/Midnight Blue webpages, and my liner notes from it do say Alan Yoshida. I've received no reply yet, but do see that they removed the erroneous mastering info from the website.

Yesterday morning I sent an email to HDTracks asking for clarification, since my newly downloaded Hank Mobley/Soul Station had liner notes saying Bernie Grundman did the remastering in 2013, while the webpage said Alan Yoshida. Is Alan aware his mastering work is for sale on hdtracks? Click to expand.Well, I have to ask, how about all of the other Blue Note titles on HDTRACKS credited to Alan Yoshida and Robin Lynn? I think they are all credited on HDTRACKS as being mastered in April 2012.
