While at one moment you think you are in Yemen, the next moment a Mexican theme comes along. A large number of musicians contributed to the CD. One of these deserves specific attention, namely the singer Zion Golan who made a vast contribution to the CD with his vocals. The gifted trumpetist concludes the CD with a lyric flugelhorn piece in which moments of melancholy appear that reminds one of the work of Chet Baker.
