.Your Daily Lick: Derek Smith

Latin Expression (self-released)

Here’s one for the sun; Latin Expression is a Caribbean vacation on a shiny disc, and with a grey sky overhead it just doesn’t feel right. Smith, adept on steel drum and vibraphone, is like a subtler, more sophisticated Jimmy Buffet: his ten covers of Latin jazz classics and two originals get their message across without vocals or artifice.
