Friendship is an album by jazz saxophonist Perico Sambeat.
This was Sambeat's first recording as leader for ACT Music. [1] He was also the producer. [1]
The album was recorded at Knoop Studio, River Edge, New Jersey, in February 2003. [1] All but one track (" Crazy She Calls Me") is a Sambeat original. [1] Carmen Canela sings in Portuguese on one track. [1]
The Penguin Guide to Jazz suggested that the tracks were too similar and that more of Sambeat on soprano instead of alto sax would have helped this. [2] BBC Music Magazine commented that "Mehldau, away from his own records, is free simply to play excellent piano", and "this is an often riveting sequence of originals". [3]
