Here's a very unusual, yet interesting  album recorded in New York in the spring of 2003.  Steve Bloom wrote the music for this group in 2001 when he was learning to play the Tres by transcribing songs.  He put this band together and made a demo, a few live shows later he had an offer to make a record.  This is the result.  The group is made up of fine jazz musicians who produce a very jazz-like take on modern Cuban Son.  I really dig this record, the fusion of bebop and Son is really incredible.  You can certainly tell that Steve was an accomplished jazz guitarist before taking up the Tres, his phrasing is very much in the jazz vocabulary.
I encourage everyone who enjoys this record to head over to CD Baby to purchase a copy.  Here's a link:
