feat. David Liebman,Dave Samuels, Ed Simon,Jerry Bergonzi, Oscar Stagnaro, Richard Drexler, Orlando Sanchez & Alex Acuña
"On
a program that stretches the boundaries of Latin and jazz
into tantalizing new contours, Richie Zellon has entered a
zone where strikingly dissimilar rhythms from throughout the
Americas blend magically with unanticipated melodic detours
and buoyant jazz improvisations to create a dazzling new idiom."
Mark Holston -Jazziz
"On
Metal Caribe, Zellon produces his most well-travelled,
seamless effort yet, illustrating the common threads in music
and cultural experience through endlessly surprising compositions
and arrangements."
-JazzTimes
"...Zellon
transcends the Cuban and/or Brazilian confines established
by most Latin jazz practitioners."

"Zellon
makes a compelling case for Latin jazz as a new kind of international
language on Metal Caribe." -Hispanic
"If
there is one contemporary musician who truly personifies the
successful synthesis of the myriad pan-American genres into
unconventional and compelling new forms, it is undoubtedly
Lima, Peru-born guitarist, composer, and all around music
alchemist Richie Zellon"
