For more than a decade JPM has been touring, recording and establishing himself as an artist with a strong voice & unique ability."Decade" is a mixture of Moore's creative blend of bass-laced contemporary jazz compositions and arrangements. "Decade 1996-2005" serves to acknowledge JPM's past and designs the way to his future.
An excellent fusion-based bassist whose music ranges from post-bop jazz to world music with stops in rock and blues, Joseph Patrick Moore is a very fluent and versatile player. Born and raised in Memphis and now living in Atlanta, he has as of this writing released five CDs as a leader. Decade draws its material from each of those discs and offers a well-rounded portrait of Moore's playing and writing. While Moore has plenty of solo space, including four pieces in which he is heard unaccompanied or playing all of the instruments, he also features his sidemen on many of the numbers. Whether offering tributes to Miles Davis (the brief "Pause #1") and Herbie Hancock ("Herbie"), inventive covers of songs by the Police and Men at Work, or the leader's original pieces, this compilation keeps listeners guessing. The virtuosity, unpredictability, and excellent pacing make this a release of strong interest and, with nearly 80 minutes of music, it gives listeners a strong and generous sampling of the music of the talented Joseph Patrick Moore. ~ Scott Yanow, All Music Guide |
