More comments about
the CD "Soul Redemption" "Abel Zarate displays his
guitar artistry and songwriting ability … one can hear shades
of … Carlos Antonio Jobim, Gabor Szabo, and Wes Montgomery.
Michelle's keyboard and writing style is a great stylistic match
for [Abel's] talents." "If you like jazz with an
international flavor, you will enjoy this CD very much. It has
an upbeat yet relaxed tempo. Latin flavors sizzle throughout,
with a touch of African and South American." "Your music is a welcome antidote at a time when jazz seems to be stagnating and 'smooth' too often means 'sappy.' Your subtle compositions reveal new pleasures with each listening. Thought provoking and challenging, yet familiar and welcoming, "Soul Redemption" evokes fresh, interesting images and reminds us of the joy to be found in discovering a truly original artist." -- Jose S. Unique and inspiring ..." -- Frank M. "Awesome, a pleasant surprise ..." -- Kathy L. "Right now I'm listening to your music, and I must say that I enjoy it very much! Congratulations for your brilliant recording! All the best for both of you, und looking forward to hearing something new from you." --Michael L., Germany "This is impressive, very musical." -- Sherrill E.
