HI-FLY ORCHESTRA - MAMBO ATOMICO (IMPORT LP)

The Hi-Fly Orchestra Mambo Atomico on Import LP

Only one and a half years after their successful debut album The Hi-Fly Orchestra are back with Atomico. Once again, the tunes have been recorded live on a 16-track tape machine, delivering an authentic and original sound. Although the band consists of six men, one man is responsible for keeping the group at performance peak when sideman leave and others take their place, one man holds everything together and was responsible for forming the group, the leader and sax/flute player, Florian Riedl. Instrumentally, the sound effects and expressions here are achieved by the use of flute, saxophone, trombone, piano, congas, double-bass and drums, a particularly good combination of instruments to gain a great effect. This album is not completely jazz-oriented, but it fully displays the variety of the talents of this great band nonetheless.
