Maybe it's all too melodic and too strictly curtailed in terms of extensive development to prevent complete enjoyment. You can have too much tunefulness after all. While the melodies hit you immediately as easy on the ear the nevertheless attractive sound is one that you might want to put down after a while or ration carefully. Couched in a very bluesy kind of Levantine cool, ideal for a quiet night in, if you're into Dhafer Youssef and above all Rabih Abou-Khalil then this oud-keys duo set-up is perfect. Head straight for 'Duo' the best track by far here from the popular Snarky Puppy players. Out today. Michael League top left and Bill Laurance. Photo: via Bill Laurance on Twitter
