Dave Weckl makes contemporary jazz sizzle with the heat and intensity of artists who've grown up with caffeine in their veins and restless anticipation on their minds. The combination of a rumbling electric bass, a gyrating set of keyboards, and a powerfully propulsive set of drums comes naturally to our generation. We've been shaking to their textures since before we were even tall enough to ride the beginner roller coaster at our local carnival...

Dave Weckl's an excellent, flamboyant drummer, and his band makes joyous, entertaining music on the nine-song Multiplicity. They include snippets and references to such genres as reggae (the foundation of "Elements of Surprise") and funk (forms the framework for "Watch Your Step") as well as fusion ("Inner Vision"), Latin and rock, but there's still an improvisational/jazz sensibility that underlines almost every selection...

I finally gave up trying to identify only one "favorite" song. When a CD is loaded with this much good stuff, it's virtually impossible to choose between all of the keepers! So I did my best to whittle it down to my favorites of my favorites. This CD is an up-tempo, foot-tappin', gem. I love songs that hit you with a theme or melody that grabs you and won't let go. The kind where you find yourself humming it constantly.....for weeks...

This CD is off the hook! The ease with which it cascades from one style to the next, and the apparent close comradery of the brilliantly organized ensemble of musicians give this recording its much-deserved title. Dave Weckl started playing drums at age 8 and began receiving awards during his high school years...

Weckl's latest "Transition" might cause you to think you've found a "Weather Report" disc you'd never heard and even check the cover again to be sure. The music is all original and though not a tribute, this is a welcome influence. One exception is keyboardist Weingart evoking (Stretch Records exec producer) Chick's presence on his solo and keyboard sound on "Braziluba" which winds its way into one of leader Weckl's patented percussion clinics backed by ensemble kicks...

Drummer-led ensembles seem to gravitate towards two disparate concepts. First there is the idea of promoting the ensemble and compositions, "music over chops"; leaders including Peter Erskine, Jack DeJohnette and Edward Vesala fit comfortably into this category. On the other hand there are drummers who, while not intending to draw attention away from a group sound, place the drums and technique front and centre. Ralph Peterson and, more specifically, Dave Weckl fall strongly into this camp...

Explosive drummer Dave Weckl leads a talented ensemble that sounds a bit like his old group, the Chick Corea Elektric Band, minus the venerable Mr. Corea. This second release from the Weckl Band is an energetic mix of improvised fusion and pop-jazz...

One interesting fact about the Dave Weckl Band's Rhythm of the Soul is that it will soon be available in five different music-minus-one play-along formats: one each for drummers, keyboardists, bassists, guitarists and saxophonists. So if you want to strike a monster groove like the Davemeister himself, now's your chance...
