Billy Cobham Total Eclipse Jazz Music CD Review

The exceptionally talented Jazz artist Billy Cobham has released him CD entitled Total Eclipse. I am very confident and happy to announce that I believe Billy Cobham fans, and Jazz fans alike will be pleased with this one. With the release of Total Eclipse Billy Cobham's artistic excellence is on full display as Cobham has once again delivered a brilliant collection of tracks that could very well be him best work to date.It's a rare day indeed that I get a CD from an artist that I can truthfully say does not have a bad track in the bunch. I'm more than happy to announce that's exactly what I must say about this one. There simply isn't a bad one in the bunch. No fillers here at all.One of the refreshingly nice things about this CD is the way all of the participating artists seem to be really enjoying themselves. Combine that with the overall presentation and you've got one of Billy Cobham's most impressive releases ever.I'm of the opinion that Total Eclipse is certainly Billy Cobham's best work in a few years. A totally enjoyable CD and an outstanding release. What I call must have music. I give it two thumbs up because it's a collection that even the casual Jazz fan can appreciate and enjoy.While the entire album is really very good the truly standout tunes are track 3 - Total Eclipse, track 6 - The Moon Ain't Made Of Green Cheese, and track 8 - Last Frontier.My Bonus Pick, and the one that got Sore [...as in "Stuck On REpeat"] is track 1 - Solarization: Solarization / Second Phase / Crescent Sun / Voyage / Solarization-Recapitulation. This is a great track!Total Eclipse Release Notes:Billy Cobham originally released Total Eclipse on April 25, 2000 on the Wounded Bird Records label.CD Track List Follows:1.
