This nearly 10-minute-long instrumental piece is a fine display of the “compositional flexibility” that is one of the core aims of this trio.

Rocking, Rolling, Flowing

It features clear and distinct blues notes, but there are hints of various other musical styles, with particular nods to rock and jazz. They all meld together seamlessly, rocking and rolling and flowing in a smooth stream of colorful sound. _{(Image source)}

As “Rolling Stone” magazine put it so succinctly, Ribot is a “go-to guitar guy.”
