Today, the guitarist still plays his instrument with the same fiery enthusiasm that he had as a young player first making his name, having lost none of his talent for furious, daring improvisations, or hard-swinging grooves. \\r\u003cbr\u003e\\r\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMartino's core trio featuring Pat Bianchi and Carmen Intorre, Jr., is here augmented by the fiery saxophone of Adam Niewood and the forceful trumpet of Alex Norris. Martino's excellent choice of sidemen was made evident by the thoughtful communication and sense of fun shared between Martino and his colleagues.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEl Nino\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHipsippy Blues\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHomage\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDuke Ellington's Sound of Love\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEl Hombre\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn Your Own Sweet Way\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNightwings\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn a Sentimental Mood\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOn the Stairs\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Chalkys.com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55324581069185,"sku":"707442","price":15.48,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0056\/8043\/1219\/files\/51XmGfH2hYL._SL1500.jpg?v=1770466767","url":"https:\/\/chalkys.com\/products\/707442","provider":"Chalkys.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
