    None of them is a complete dud--Sandoval’s red-hot soloing saves “Tight Like That”--they just feel like they belong on different albums. Had they been pruned, Ske-Dat-De-Dat really would have been a dream tribute to Satchmo.

    This is not jazz for the purist but it is a heartfelt and entertaining tribute to one of the musical greats.

    Inventive arrangements and a strong supporting cast including Bonnie Raitt and the Blind Boys of Alabama mean these gumbo variations on obscurities and super-club standards come with added spice. [Oct 2014, p.108]
