Sweet Drive

Les Sabler
Sold through Guitar Nine thru 2012

Alex Henderson writes about Sweet Drive, "The list of well-known Los Angeles-based musicians who Canadian guitarist Les Sabler employs on Sweet Drive is impressive. Keyboardist Jeff Lorber, saxophonists Eric Marienthal and Gary Meek, bassist Brian Bromberg (who produced this 2007 release), trumpeter Jerry Hey (of Seawind fame), drummer Vinnie Colaiuta, and percussionist Alex Acuna are among the participants. Les Sabler, a Montreal native, is a capable and talented, if derivative, player whose direct or indirect influences include George Benson, Lee Ritenour, Wes Montgomery, Larry Carlton, and Earl Klugh (among others)." Nina Goodrich adds, "Powerful songs, master talents and great interplay make this album a must have. Enough variety, energy and just plain good listening pleasure, is offered on Sweet Drive to make it a must in the CD player."
