It is over a quarter of a century since their self titled debut in 1981 and 30 or so albums in that time make the Yellowjackets veterans in the Jazz/ Fusion world. ‘Raising Our Voice’ is another accomplished set that will appeal to the band’s many fans. The addition of Luciana Souza on vocals – often wordless – gives a different dimension. ‘Man facing North’ is typical of this revised approach, whilst sounding very much part of the band’s repertoire that encompasses a broad selection of Jazz styles. The intriguing ‘Ecuador’ and the flowing Jazz of ‘Timeline’are pleasant tracks. The album oozes effortless ease.
