Broadjam Artist: Bill Dake
Song: In The Gardens of Mrs. B (Instrumental)
Reviewer: Dave Haddad (CenterPeace)
Positive Comments: Nice live tracks, reminds me of Mike Stern or Scofield. Nice intro with bass and piano interplay. A good head, a little complicated but nice fusion style tune.
Constructive Comments: Piano sound is a little harsh sounding (noticeable in the intro mostly), could use a roll-off around 3k to 8k. Rhythm section not always together (50 – 1:10, mostly the drums)… very sporadic drum part is distracting, would have liked to hear a more consistent ant part…. then when it does get more consistent around 1:30, there’s more breakdowns. Seems like there’s a lot of competition for the ear, piano, guitar, bass all a little too busy around the 1:35 mark on to 1:50. Little pops here and there (1:00). Felt the song could have gone on for a round of solos when it ended.
