Free Music Notes for Copperopolis (Dig)
Free Music Review: Jazz that sizzles!
Hit: 5 Stars
This album and the Trio are at a peak! Jazz reviewers rave about this album and with good reason. Hunter, Ellis and Phillips have pooled together their talents and created something fresh and vibrant.
I saw them last night in NYC and they were alive with all the things that make great music. Charlie Hunter used his ingenious eight string guitar to lay down some unbelievable licks. The sound he is able to produce on his specially made instrument go beyond anything you'll find done by other musicians.
Derreck Phillips played the drums with one hand, shook a tambourine in the other, never missed a beat and sounded like he was playing with both! I had never seen anything like it!
John Ellis and his talent on multiple instruments brought an extra dimension to the group. He is a truly original artist playing the Tenor Saxophone, Bass Clarinet, Organ and his most unusal instrument, the Melodica. Together this trio is more than awesome.
This CD is a must for anyone even remotely interested in jazz music. It has elements of jazz, blues, funk and even more! It rocks! See them live if you can - you'll never forget it!

As impressive as Charlie Hunter's mastery of his eight-string guitar is, it may not be as strong a mark of distinction as his success in devising an original jazz-funk sound in a genre long ruled by guitarist John Scofield. Since arriving on the scene from San Francisco in the mid-'90s, Hunter has gotten stuck in a rut or two, but as efforts like Copperopolis demonstrate, he has the rare ability to renew his sound. Recorded in New Orleans, a setting reflected by an unlikely second line take on Thelonious Monk's "Think of One," the album may be his most appealingly varied. Hunter and his regular cohorts, tenor saxist John Ellis and drummer Derrek Phillips, thrive on the usual shimmering grooves and sonic embellishments, but with Ellis adding melodica and Wutrlitzer to his bop-fueled attack, they attain a lighter, more coloristic quality. And when Hunter forgoes the textural touches to lay into a blues riff, lean and mean, they rock harder than ever. It's thinking man's fusion music for listeners who want more instant gratification than they can get from the jam-band scene. --Lloyd Sachs
