I really struggle to explain what is so special about Noy's note and chord selections. It's obvious that his mechanical ability is stellar. But it's more about the zero latency between his brain and his fingertips...somehow he dreams up such edgy note selections that are so close to not fitting and his fingers perform timely. One more thing: he somehow does the same thing with timing. Chocolate Souffle.
I have not much overlap with JB's music normally, but utterly respect his opennes towards collaborations like these. And ye, rippin awesome solos on Oz Noy's gig is a special kind of reward I guess. Right on.
