about

"What Standard Time reveals is an artist whose interests lay beyond rock. Yet some of the tracks reflect the disco craze of the time, particularly the Latin-tinged “Don’t Let Go.” (Just listen to the throbbing bass and percussion reminiscent of Paul McCartney’s own “Goodnight Tonight.”) However, his swift finger picking on the electric guitar leans toward jazz. Juber’s take on “You’re No Good” also favors a danceable beat over Linda Ronstadt’s country-rock hit. Juber wrote one of the most interesting tracks on the album, “Maisie,” during Wings’ Back to the Egg sessions. Featuring a distinctly country twang, the song includes McCartney on bass, Laine on harmonica, and Steve Holley on drums. What results is a fun jam that sounds timeless; Juber’s guitar may not be as prominently featured as on other Standard Time tracks, but “Maisie” has arguably aged best.

Juber’s talent still rises above the material, and the album provides a launching off point for a highly respected musician who specializes in sophisticated yet graceful interpretations of standards from yesterday and today... It nicely summarizes Juber’s seemingly effortless style of playing guitar. Yet his inventive rearrangements and tasteful but complex style of picking illustrate Juber’s gifts as a guitarist and musical interpreter.
