Martin Taylor - Dont Fret
Review by Jean Pablo Ferreira de Oliveira
Martin Taylor's album "Don't Fret" is a beautiful and soulful collection of songs that showcases the guitarist's incredible talent and artistry. From the opening track "Autumn Leaves" to the closing number "Sweet Georgia Brown," Taylor's playing is masterful and moving, blending jazz, blues, and folk influences into a seamless and captivating sound.
The album features a mix of original compositions and classic standards, all of which are given Taylor's unique touch and interpretation. His playing is intricate and nuanced, with each note and chord carefully crafted to create a rich and textured sound. The arrangements are sophisticated and complex, but never feel overly showy or indulgent.
One of the standout tracks on the album is "Stardust," a hauntingly beautiful rendition of the Hoagy Carmichael classic. Taylor's playing is delicate and restrained, allowing the melody to shine through and tug at the listener's heartstrings. Another highlight is "Georgia on My Mind," which features Taylor's fluid and soulful playing accompanied by a lush string arrangement.
