Cuong Vu's 2005 It's Mostly Residual album found the trumpeter and his bandmates carefully treading a path between two forms of jazz whose adherents audiences and musicians didn't often mingle. If contemporary Pat Metheny, Mark Isham and avant Chris Speed's yeah NO, Dave Douglas' Sanctuary jazz could find a common meeting ground, Vu, whose widest audience exposure in the mid-2000s was probably through his membership in the Pat Metheny Group, was an artist with the skills and sensibility to make that happen.

Cuong Vu: trumpet Stomu Takeishi: electric bass Ted Poor: drums. Guest Bill Frisell: guitar. Cuong Vu's trademark as a composer is gradually building tunes that intensify toward the middle and include elements of free jazz and jazz-rock. The key is to have a band that can pull off the demands of such superficially simple yet ultimately complex music. Having the right players makes Vu's It's Mostly Residual a success. Ted Poor's percussion and Bill Frisell's initially subtle guitar give the title tune an elegiac feeling. Then Vu soars and a percussive burst leads into Frisell's emotionally charged and dazzling fusion riff. Trumpeter Cuong Vu has gained considerable recognition through his live appearances and session work with some of today's top avant-garde jazz musicians, his membership in the Pat Metheny Group, and his leadership of a jazztronica trioquartet also f. read more. top albums.

Cuong Vu: Its Mostly Residual. Published December 1, 2005 By Brent Burton. Vus new album is a fine example of what jazz can sound like when embracing the present momentor, at least, when it isnt embracing the past. Vus lithe rhythm section, drummer Ted Poor and bassist Stomu Takeishi, mimic the abstract skitter-and-throb of grime and avant techno. Guest guitarist Bill Frisell lets rip with some all-too-rare metallic licks one ticket to the Torture Garden, please. And Vu gets downright neopsychedelic when he solos, filtering his Miles- and Cherry-influenced blowing through a bevy of note-stretching effects
