2 out of 5 stars Faddis has range and power, but no class........2004-06-28

This album is a curiosity and a perversion. A well rounded athelete doesn't just have big biceps. Faddis is a one trick pony. Plus, he raps. "I'm Faddis, I'm the baddest, I'm rap-master J." Those words burn in my mind eternal. But if you're looking to listen to someone who can play higher than you, you're all set. Also, a few tracks are pretty neat - such as the track where he samples over himself 16 times. That's neat. But that pony only has one trick.

5 out of 5 stars Jon Faddis is a great trumpet player.......2000-05-04

I just bought this CD and enjoyed all the tunes. After buying the CD I attended a trumpet clinic he gave at Scottsdale Community College, Scottsdale, Arizona. The following night I attended the concert with jazz ensembles he was featured with. He is the most powerful and versatile jazz trumpet I have ever heard. His intonation is great, exceptionally beautiful tone, incredible technique and his ability to play with total control in the upper register is the best I have ever heard.

He plays with exceptional control with a wide range. He has great musical ideas in his improvisations.

I highly recommend this album especially for people who enjoy hearing trumpet solos.

5 out of 5 stars Faddis Has It All.......1999-05-18

This CD is yet more proof of why Jon Faddis is probably the greatest jazz trumpet player on the scene today. While certainly not a household name, Faddis is unquestionably revered by fellow musicians, especially trumpeters as being world-class. Musicians dig chops, and Jon has got chops. Not just for his other-worldly high-note work, but also for great improvisiation, be it super-fast be-bop, or mellow ballads.

4 out of 5 stars Jon Faddis has a very powerful and unique style..........1999-03-10

Jon Faddis rules in the upper register of his horn. With his fast passages and lyrical solos, it's no wonder he is one of the greats! I highly recommend this cd to any trumpet player out there...it's worth the money.
