Noy, Oz: Fuzzy

Sure, Israeli-born Oz Noy can shred like Vernon Reid in a match with Jimi (take a listen to "Which Way Is Up?" or the title cut) and sure he surrounds himself with some ace musicians (Anton Fig, Will Lee, Vinnie Colaiuta, Jimmy Johnson), manages to pull off The Jazz Ballad (a fairly nondescript reading of Prince's "Sometimes It Snows In April") but there's not much here that sets Noy apart from his peers. His voice is developed but indistinct and the compositions amount to little more than the kind of contemporary jazz that winds up getting drowned out by the sound of clearing tables at eateries and cafés from Bed-Stuy to Laguna Hills. Moreover, the latter half of the record wallows in mellowisms that are likely to put the average listener to sleep if not make them reach for the off button. Flawed and forgettable.
