Justo Almario & Abraham Laboriel (1995)

"Justo Almario and Abe Laboriel have been jazz hermanos for twenty five years. But besides their common Latin heritage (Almario is from Colombia, Laboriel from Mexico) and affinity for everything from blues to rock to South African and tropical sounds, they also share a mutual appreciation for all things spiritual. Despite the fanciful diversity of their logical, long-awaited duet collection Justo Almario Abe Laboriel, it is their love of the Lord which ties their musical beliefs into a collective whole. While Laboriel allows himself a few trademark bassaerobic solos, he never puts his ego in front. Almario does everything he can; tenor, alto, soprano, flute, even clarinet-depending on the moodswing of the moment. The collaboration is about much more than simple Amazing Grace. All-stars like Greg Mathieson, Harlan Rogers, Luis Conte and Paul Jackson add their own flairs to all the different pop, jazz and all variations. The result is one of the most inspirational albums of the year." (Allmusic).
