REVIEW All About Jazz Certified Organic Pete Levin / Pete Levin Music 2008 By John Kelman August 2008 Keyboardist Pete Levin has built a fine discography, closely linked to the jazz world, but it's his recent solo work that's most worth visiting. Drawing from the same organ jazz roots that defined Deacon Blues (Motema, 2007), on Certified Organic Levin recruits a larger cast of characters for an album high on groove but broad in reach, with elements of swing, soul-jazz, funk, fusion and more. Levin's own multifaceted nature drives the record, starting from the get-go with his funkified "I'm Falling," where guitarist John Carridi's chunky rhythm playing locks hand-in-glove with drummer Harvey Sorgen's in-the-pocket groove. Levin solos with the organ-equivalent of Scofield's uncanny ability to take things out just enough to create a palpable release when he brings it back in, while Carridi's overdriven solo is bop-inflected but blues-centric. While grabbing a larger chunk of compositional credit this time around, Levin also finds new approaches to popular tunes. But it's Levin's arrangement of Jaco Pastorius' often-covered "Teen Town" that's Certified Organic's biggest surprise. Usually a bass workout, this time the knotty but singable theme isn't its primary focus; it's a steadily-building trade-off between Levin and saxophonist Erik Lawrence. Demonstrating undeniably fine skills as composer, arranger and performer whose reach goes well beyond Certified Organic's groove-happy veneer, it's an album that easily places Levin in the same company as Larry Goldings, Gary Versace and Dan Wall * * * Over the last 3 decades, Pete has performed and recorded with hundreds of Jazz and Pop artists - Paul Simon, Annie Lennox, David Sanborn, Miles Davis, Wayne Shorter, Vanessa Williams, Lenny White, Hiram Bullock, Carla Bley, Jaco Pastorius, Robbie Robertson, John Scofield - in a diverse career highlighted by an 8 year stint with the Jimmy Giuffre Four and 15 years with the legendary Gil Evans. Known internationally as a master synthesizer specialist, Pete was at the vanguard of that technology, but never lost sight of his Jazz roots and first love, the Hammond Organ. These 2 albums are Pete's first recordings as a band leader playing organ exclusively. Downbeat Magazine said, 'The New York artist has a serious keyboard resume, so you'd expect him to lay down some real grease and gravy.' Pete does just that on CERTIFIED ORGANIC, while again demonstrating that he knows how to feature his sidemen. Four different guitarists deliver outstanding performances on this set; New York session whiz John Cariddi (Steve Marcus, Patti Austin), the legendary Joe Beck (Miles Davis, Gil Evans), Mike DeMicco (Dave Brubeck, Jack DeJohnette) and the irrepressible Jesse Gress (Todd Rundgren, Tony Levin... |
