He recorded his eighth album as leader, Angelica, at the age of 19; it was released by CAM Jazz. In 2011, Verve Records released his Moody'n, which was bebop-based and was judged by some critics to be well executed but illustrative of Cafiso's lack of innovation. For the following three years Cafiso did not record and toured much less than before. He re-emerged with a new band that was influenced by Sicilian music yet retained jazz sensibilities, and released the three-CD recording 3. Much of the music was written by Cafiso, which was also a change from his earlier career. He attributed some of his musical change to switching from a Selmer Mark VI to a Selmer Reference 54: "The new saxophone is more rigid. It doesn't respond immediately. In looking how to adjust my playing to this new instrument, I found my new sound." (en)
