These cats can jam! Is OPRACHINA one of the top jazz acts in Italy?

There's a lot of variety on this album... from gentle folkish acoustic guitar, to real hard-blowing straight ahead jazz. Nice compositions mixed with free improvisation. And the playing is phenomenal! If you like jazz, you won't want to pass this up.

And hey, Massimo. Do you have some extra fingers or something? I got this visual while listening to your solo on Fat-Fast and all I could see was a blur!

Quels magnifiques morceaux si bien interprétés ! De la mélancolie, de la douceur, voilà un album qui nous laisse une saveur de miel. C'est un enchantement pour les oreilles, une merveille de sons plus mélodieux les uns que les autres.

This is undoubtedly perfectly carried out and highly skillful performance but still there's something that missing. I'm not sure what it is, maybe distinctiveness.

"The Jazz Farm" to me is an album of contemporary jazz in the bebop tradition with a lot of 70ies influences, and it's interesting that it reminds me mostly of those jazz guitarists in the vein of Ralph Towner (and his Oregon outfit), Pat Metheny and Bill Frisell.

Beautiful playing, nice compositions, indeed the major point of critizism is the sub-par miking of the saxophones, which stands out especially disturbing on the sax/guitar duet tunes like Porta D'Arce, Attimi and Le Fiabe da Brno.

I'm somewhat curious - is the band leader the guitarist or the sax player?

Because I don't know the system of jamendo, I have to write my question here: The noted licence on Jamendo is
http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/
the licence in the notepad in the bittorent folder is
http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/2.5/it/
so what is the correct licence?

This is the first album i downloaded form jamendo , so it was like an introduction to a new world of music experience. I really enjoy your music and I hope you will post more albums. Too bad i rarely see
jazz artists in my country.

Thank you for your music.

Sincerely, Karaghenov

Intelligent,inviting and delightfully evocative, jazz-riffs that show a fertile imagination. There isn't really a weak moment anywhere on this album.
Highly recommended.

Nice interplay between the sax and the guitar: it's good to know there's still music like this being played out there!
