The powerful voice and swinging trombone of Dan Barnett – previously only heard live at some of Australia’s leading venues – is now available in a convenient take-home pack………… his debut CD - ‘The Right Track’.
Overflowing with great music, ‘The Right Track’ features a tight swinging quintet and a hard-hitting, grooving, big band.
From the swinging big band sound of the title track, to the fabulous vocal gymnastics of Love Is Just Around The Corner, and the super cool treatment of the classic Black Orpheus, this CD showcases the many talents of Dan Barnett together with some of Australia’s best players.
One of the country’s premier crooners, Dan Barnett caresses the lyrics of Ellington’s I Ain’t Got Nothing But The Blues and the boys in the band back him up big time – including a great Don Rader trumpet solo.
My Kind Of Girl and Tain’t What You Do are also given the Barnett “business” with sax solos from Brad Child and Nicholas B Hempton
One Note Samba was arranged by Chuck Morgan and on this track he demonstrates why he continues to set the standard for superior guitar work.
The roll call of talent on The Right Track also includes John Morrison, Graham Hilgendorf, Peter DiLosa, Daryl Carthew, Ben Gurton, Andrew “Jock” Robertson, Brad Child, Ralph Franke, Peter Locke, Steve Arie, Shane Cranney and a special performance by Cliff Barnett (who must now be sure his son is definitely on the right track).
Glenn Wright from Sydney’s Harbourside Brasserie is glowing in his praise of Dan Barnett:
“He is one of the most talented vocalists in the land.
Dan’s voice and his phrasing are sensational – and he is also a formidable trombonist.
I’m sure that this new album will be the first of many.
We can look forward to hearing lots more of Dan Barnett”.
