Review by Todd Harter

Journey Together, the latest album by David Sills, is a remarkable achievement in contemporary jazz music. The album features a collection of original compositions and covers that showcase Sills' virtuosic saxophone playing and his ability to lead a talented ensemble of musicians.

From the opening track, "Journey Together," Sills sets the tone for the album with a soaring melody that is both uplifting and introspective. The album's title track is followed by "The Promise," a beautiful ballad that features Sills' lush and melodic tenor saxophone playing.

Sills' musicality and versatility are on full display throughout the album, as he seamlessly transitions between different styles and moods. On "The Real Deal," Sills' saxophone takes on a bluesy and soulful tone, while on "The It Girl," he showcases his playful and whimsical side with a bouncy and upbeat melody.

The album's standout track, however, is "Blues for the Ages," a haunting and evocative composition that features Sills' saxophone playing at its most emotional and expressive. The song is a testament to Sills' ability to convey deep emotion through his music, and it is sure to leave a lasting impression on listeners.
