Review by Eric Spears

Nino Impallomeni E Il Suo Sestetto has released an enchanting album titled Mama Inez Amapola that is sure to captivate listeners. The album features a collection of Latin jazz tracks that are infused with the unique musical style of Sicilian culture.

The album opens with the title track "Mama Inez Amapola", a vibrant and upbeat tune that sets the tone for the rest of the album. The sestetto's use of percussion and brass instruments creates a lively and energetic sound that is impossible to resist.

The album also features slower, more melodic tracks such as "Bésame Mucho" and "Sabor a Mí" that showcase the group's ability to create a more romantic and sentimental atmosphere. The use of acoustic guitar and piano in these tracks adds a touch of elegance to the overall sound of the album.

Throughout the album, Nino Impallomeni's saxophone playing shines through, adding a unique and distinct sound to the sestetto's music. His improvisational skills are showcased in tracks such as "El Cumbanchero" and "La Bamba", where he takes the lead and creates a dynamic and exciting sound.
