“During March, 2016, John Tafaro released his single “In Time You Will See”,
featuring Grammy Award-winning, Los Angeles-based contemporary saxophonist,
Eric Marinthal, and one of the founding fathers of fusion, keyboardist Jeff Lorber, as
well as drummer Ricky Lawson, co-founder of the Yellowjackets and who has
collaborated with the likes of Stevie Wonder, Michael Jackson, Eric Clapton, Phil
Collins, Whitney Houston and Steely Dan. John Tafaro John Tafaro True smooth
groove is part of the core of John Tafaro’s sound to begin with, and on “In Time You
Will See”, he and the other musicians involved all really reach out for that groove,
and stay on it in as many different forms as they can possibly muster. Eric
Marinthal’s saxophone punctuates the bass and rhythmic aspects of everything that
is happening instrumentally on this track. So even if a melodic line is not particularly
intended to be right in the pocket of the groove, it ends up being right there.”
“Perfectly carved for soothing, “Walking Around on Sunday” is an ideal means to
escape this hustle and bustle of life – An escape to a peaceful dimension where the
sparkling saxophone, tone-full guitar, and glitzy electric piano keys are a healing
potion to any and every soul. Needless to say John Tafaro leans toward the
contemporary nature of Jazz with inclinations more to an underlying improvisational
feel by the lead instruments, with the sax being predominantly featured. Along with
some sweet embellishments and the crisp clean production, the song has a stripped
down superstar lounge feel to it.”
