Listener Reviews & Comments
En Route is a great CD. Like the other three Four80East cd's, it's been played a lot at my house. Although I liked it, I thought at first it rated four stars here at Amazon. But after a second listen I began to understand how very good it is. There are lots of things in this album that you might not notice at first: it's intelligence... the neat electronic effects in the background... Rob DeBoer's stylish and inventive bass lines.... And mention should be made of Jon Stewart's sax: some saxists blast their leads - resulting in brassy, narcissistic solos. Stewart's style is laidback, sweet and easy. His playing never sounds forced, and is totally in sync with the whole, cool F80E atmosphere. En Route continues F80E's trademarks: strong, atmospheric melodies with the leads spiraling around Rob DeBoer's spiffy bass riffs (DeBoer is also the guitarist and keyboardist!) Where it differs some from the other F80E albums is that although the tracks are quite individualistic, they all come together very well; forming an almost geometric whole. In this sense I think it's their most mature effort yet. And their best. Fav tracks: 1.) Noodle Soup is a really catchy tune. 2.) Been Too Long would be perfect for the drive from Miami down to Key West. 3.) Waterline - a brooding tone poem underpinned by a killer bass groove. One bit from personal experience: a good system and sub-woofer will do wonders for any music, but Four80East, more than others, just comes through like gangbusters on a good stereo.
