Album Notes & Community Reviews

Released shortly after gaining international prominence in Chick Corea's Origin sextet, the Israeli bassist made a stunning solo debut with 'Adama'. Co-produced by Corea himself, the album seamlessly blends highly melodic, Mediterranean-inflected compositions with the intense rhythmic interplay and technical demands of contemporary post-bop.
