But I was thinkin' more metaphorically here. W ith video screens taking up so much of our time and attention via TV\, vid eo games\, computers\, etc. It often seems that the other stuff in our liv es has to do a bit of battle to compete for our attention\,&rdquo\; says d rummer Wally Schnalle about the title of his latest CD. Along with his usu al band mates guitarist Jeff Massanari\, sax player Charles McNeal and bas sist Jason Muscat\, Wally is rejoined by long time musical cohort Murray L ow on keyboards. Wally is an innovative and creative drummer who goes beyo nd the traditional boundaries of jazz\, funk and fusion. His ever-daring c ompositions cross a wide variety of musical styles. This new CD is Wally&r squo\;s sixth as a leader and contains 10 new jazz-fusion compositions by Schnalle. Wally&rsquo\;s ensembles have been part of the Bay Area jazz sce ne for over twenty years and always promise an exciting and fiery performa nce.\n\n \;\n\n"\;Schnalle grooves with grit and grace&hellip\;..S chnalle's quartet is awesome."\; Chuck Berg \, JazzTimes\n\n"\;Fie rce modern jazz chops.."\;Adam Budofsky \, Modern Drummer\n\n"\;Sc hnalle is a serious force on drums.
