Soul Jazz - Bob Porter wrote a book about it, how people went out and bought radios so they could hear it, feel it, talk about it. When you have musical subject like that....why, It's Something Else!
Something Else! is an all-star collective, featuring saxophonists Vincent Herring and Wayne Escoffery, trumpeter Jeremy Pelt, guitarist Paul Bollenback, pianist David Kikoski, bassist Essiet Essiet and timekeeper Otis Brown III. It's soulful music played by an outstanding septet of today's top musicians, who are obviously having a good time, sharing nuggets from Horace Silver, Eddie Harris, Stanley Turrentine, Herbie Hancock, Pee Wee Ellis, Donald Byrd, and Roy Hargrove. They even show a soulful side on a hip treatment of John Coltrane's Naima.
Put a charge in the car, get out on the road with this one, but be prepared to miss your exit!
