notes
Jerry Vezza has tried something on You Are There that is so old that it is new. He took himself and his three band mates into a studio, gathered them all into a single room, and actually recorded an album with the players feeding off each other face-to-face, just as they would at a gig. In addition, vocalist Frank Noviello is recorded like a member of the quartet, not as a singer with a trio, his voice integrated into the mix rather than pushed up front. What you get is a feeling of spontaneity and togetherness that is so sorely lacking on many current recordings. Add in a great program that combines eight standards with three Vezza originals performed by accomplished and sensitive artists, and the result is a hip jazz album that is both exhilarating and comfortable. Vezza, accompanied by frequent cohorts Tom DiCarlo on bass and Glenn Davis on drums, consistently demonstrates why he has developed a loyal following. Noviello’s vocal stylings, reminiscent in sound of the legendary Jackie Paris, add a special dimension to this recording. Those of you wise and lucky enough to purchase You Are There are guaranteed to become instant adherents to the pianistic talents of Jerry Vezza. Joe Lang - Past President, New Jersey Jazz Society
