Saxophonist Walt Weiskopf unleashes a wellspring
of creativity for his fourth release for Posi-Tone on
the aptly entitled "Fountain of Youth." Also along
with Weiskopf for the journey are a familiar crew of
accomplished collaborators including vibraphonist
Behn Gillece, pianist Peter Zak, bassist Mike Karn,
and drummer Steve Fidyk. With a program of exciting
original compositions and a few tasty covers,
the whole session swings into action and
shines with bright moments. Weiskopf has clearly
advanced to another level of compositional mastery
and effortless virtuosity with this tour-de-force
performance. This new album clearly encourages
us to enjoy the wondrous discovery of sounds and
secrets from this "Fountain of Youth.”
