Buddy Fite - Changes

Review by Glenn Paquette

Changes, the latest album from jazz guitarist Buddy Fite, is a masterpiece of contemporary jazz. Boasting a collection of 10 tracks, the album showcases Fite's exceptional guitar skills, as well as his ability to fuse different genres of music seamlessly.

The album opens with the upbeat and playful "Changes", which sets the tone for the rest of the album. Fite's guitar playing is energetic and expressive, and is complemented by the tight rhythm section of the band.

The album includes several standout tracks, such as "Soulful Strut" and "One for Wes", which highlight Fite's love of blues and soul music. The latter is a tribute to the late jazz guitarist Wes Montgomery, and features some of Fite's most impressive guitar work on the album.

Other standout tracks include "Blues for a New Day", which features a mellow, laid-back vibe, and "Autumn Leaves", a classic jazz standard that Fite puts his own spin on.

Summary by Glenn Paquette

Changes is an exceptional album that showcases Buddy Fite's exceptional guitar skills and his ability to create a cohesive and enjoyable listening experience. Fans of contemporary jazz and guitar music alike will find much to enjoy on this album. Highly recommended.
