Musicians often toy with the idea of somehow playing a different instrument. After 30 years of writing songs, making records, and relentlessly touring, Raul Malo, leader of The Mavericks and possessor of one the finest voices in all popular music, has here decided to try something else: to make an all-instrumental guitar record. With a well-known fondness for and deep knowledge of the entire spectrum of American pop music, Malo homes in on guitar-centric forms like surf guitar and Latin flourishes. Recorded by Malo at home as well as at Nashville's Blackbird Studio, a key part of the story of the pointedly titled Say Less is his son Dino's participation as keyboard player, drummer, and co-producer. The younger Malo has been forging his own musical career lately and ably supports the proceedings. While this project has a more relaxed vibe than the ambitious journey of most Mavericks albums, the most successful track is "Cosa's Cumbia" which gets into a Latin groove with trumpet from Lorenzo Molina, vocals from Lissette Diaz and handclaps from Maverick's media director Alejandro Menendez Vega. The rest of the Mavericks—guitarist Eddie Perez, drummer Paul Deakin and keyboardist Jerry Dale McFadden—thankfully join in on three tracks: the lively, jump blues of "Peach Blossom Blues," the boogie beat of "Tsu-Ching," and "Havana's Midnight," where Malo indulges his passion for the wavering tone of tremolo guitar. As a guitarist, Malo is passable though clearly this is more of a hobby than a profession. He picks his way along, preferring to spend airtime on long, textured reverb instead of attempting to display any actual chops. Say Less is listenable, but a luxury all the same—a vanity project for sure. Perhaps the Mavs needed to clear their heads to recharge their creative juices, and to give the fans the desire to hear Malo's voice once again. © Robert Baird/Qobuz
