Jane
Getter's new
album "see
jane run" is a magnificent follow up to her highly
acclaimed, debut cd, "Jane." In reference to the the new
album, Jane says, "This CD continues to develop the Jazz-Rock-African
direction I started on my first CD, JANE. I also wrote some R&B and
funk vocal tunes that I'm very happy with."
You are going to love this music! Jane really soars with her guitar
and every song reveals more and more of her incredible depth as a
composer, arranger, and musician. Jane is joined again by Adam
Holzman on keyboards, James Genus on bass, Keith Carlock on drums,
Rodney Holmes on drums, Thulani on vocals, Abdou M'Boup on percussion,
and Jerry Barnes on background vocals.

REVIEW OF "JANE"
Getter's phenomenal solo debut pulls up the deep roots of jazz and
jazz fusion, shakes off the dust and dirt, to mine and shine the
gold within. From her fingertips sails majesty our way as Hendrix's
"golden-winged ship" of inner vision. She adds the fresh soil and
liquid pleasure of her own stylings and re-plants a new tree of
earthly fused jazz delights for all to feast upon.
I will unequivocally assert that this has got to be one of the top
ten jazz guitar releases of 1998. Jane may be the solid number one
'98 release by a female jazz guitarist. I've not heard such finely
honed jazz standards style, fusion ferocity, and solid grooves since
Mike Stern exploded onto the scene. You will hear Stern Tele-thunder
tone, Jeff Beck fusion gut-punch, Hendrixian blues rock sensitivities,
George Benson scat-sync- overlayed riffs, and many more surprises
this lady can call all her own.
Jane Getter has redefined cool breeze jazz and way phat grooves
on this release. Take all this talented flair and augment it with
Weather Report/ Steps Ahead bassist, Victor Bailey, Zawinul Syndicate/
Wayne Shorter drummer, Rodney Holmes, Miles Davis Group/ Grover
Washington, Jr. keys wizard-producer Adam Holzman and this baby
kicks! This Getter "back-up band" can be all over the place doing
a funky smooth groove ballad while Getter rips the aluminum siding
off the wood shed with pure finesse.
Like a good jazz mother she then rocks you to sleep with her tender
heartbeat tones and exquisitely mellow side. Jane, you be da lady.
My hat's off to ya!
Highly recommended.
