A fine effort by a true master. As a well established sessionist Abe Laboriel is a legend in his own right. His versatility is evident by the spectrum of artists he has worked with, however a solo album has been a long time coming. "Dear Friends" is a fabulous showcase of that talent asserting itself in the arena of intelligent jazz. Though lacking in the kind of bass-driven melodies heard in albums by other bass greats like John Pattiticci and Victor Wooten, this album is very well thought out in it's use of the bass as an instrument that undergirds each compositions.
