Review by Ramachandra Reddy

The Monette Sudler Quartet Quintet's album Time For A Change is a refreshing and uplifting jazz experience. The album features a mix of original compositions and covers that showcase the band's versatility and creativity. Sudler's guitar playing is impressive throughout the album, and her solos are a highlight of each track. The rhythm section, consisting of bassist Lee Smith and drummer Craig McIver, provides a solid foundation for the music, while pianist Tom Lawton and saxophonist Bobby Zankel add layers of texture and melody. The album's title track, "Time For A Change," is a standout with its funky groove and catchy melody. Other highlights include the bluesy "Freedom Jazz Dance" and the Latin-infused "Recuerdos." Time For A Change is a must-listen for jazz fans looking for a fresh take on the genre.
