Dan Wojciechowski offers a well-rounded set of rock and blues "play-alongs" on
WojoWorks' Sessions Minus One. The CD features some of the best radio-ready tracks from three sessions that the drummer played on, largely the work of guitarist Andy Timmons. It's an excellent musical workout for the hands and the ears. You're belting progressive power pop on "To Your Knees," strutting with fiery vocalist Maylee Thomas on "Blood Is Thicker Than Water," jetting to keep up with Timmons on the to-the-wall double-time "Groove Or Die," building a dynamic rock anthem on "A Night To Remember," and pumping about five nice grooves on the Stevie Ray-ish "Last One." On the "minus" tracks he varies the click sounds, and there's no rhythmic cue at all on "Groove Or Die," demanding total concentration on the nuances of the music.
"There's the feel of working with a good, rehearsed and studio-ready rock band here, rather than the drudgery or having to keep pace with a noisy click and a bunch of sequenced synth horn parts, WojoWorks is good training and a lot of fun. (Wojciechowski refers to his disc as 'Volume I.' It would be interesting if his next 'minus one' featured several of the tracks he played on the spellbinding world jazz release by pianist Matthew Nicholl and bassist Elliot Wadopian.)"- Robin Tolleson
