From JAZZ WEEK, February 23, 2005
"It's hard to pin down violinist Zach Brock and his band The Coffee Achievers on their second album Chemistry; the CD starts out with a fusion track, Cold Turkey, complete with rapid speaker-to-speaker panning and electric violin with distortion, but switches to the album's only vocal track with lyrics, This Is Just, with singer Melissa Stylianou. But it's that variety, and the strength of the compositions by Brock, keyboardist Sam Barsh (featured on the new Avishai Cohen album), and bassist Matt Wigton, that make this so enjoyable to listen to from end-to-end. That variety also means that there's a track or two - at least - for almost any mainstream jazz station, whether it's the contemporary funky feel of 1 A.M. Gate, the pretty interplay of cello, violin, and vocals on Playa Blanca, or the frantic, dual electric violins on Remember Young Ray. Chemistry should appeal to younger listeners as well as those in your older core audience who remember some of the more electric sounds of the seventies." - Ed Trefzger
