CD Reviews

Isle of Orleans a master blend of tradition and innovation.

Vic G. Sarjoo | New York & New Orleans | 09/11/2004

(5 out of 5 stars)

"Laughlin's current opus is a genuine gem from New Orleans, or 'Nu Oilens' as he instructs non locals to properly pronounce it. Like a gem, the music is pure of construction, as Laughlin writes in a traditional jazz form. Also like a gem, each tune is singular to itself, to its breatheren on the album, and yet is also able to stand singularly apart from, and yet alongside, its traditional musical heritage. When I played "Isle" at a NYC party of jazz fans, most of which were unfamiliar with of Tim, the crowd immediately began to percolate with musings of the origin of the tunes. This is a magnificent work of music and takes the listener through every emotion - in a most enjoyable way."
