In 1998 Previte turns his attention to a new orchestration: two guitars, Hammond organ, and drums. A self-proclaimed “return” to the music of his youth, the group, “Latin for Travelers” makes two recordings, both live, from the same concerts in Sydney, Australia, “My Man in Sydney” (1998) and “Dangerous Rip” (1999). A bar band that could “change on a half-step” (Downbeat), these to records feature inspired jamming from Jamie Saft, Jerome Harris and the French guitar wizard Marc Ducret.
“Like nothing I have ever heard before- if it’s a bar band, then there must be some wild bars where Previte comes from.” - Sydney Morning Herald

This is a wonderful album! Dave Douglas is one of my heroes. He's more than a great musician. He has a vision for the music and a feeling for putting together a group which is unique. So, beside Joey Baron (another heavyweight and one of my absolute favourite drummers) he invited some young cats to this session. They play just great and make sure that this music sounds totally fresh, whilst at the same time being deeply rooted in the jazz tradition. Florian Arbenz
