Behn Gillece - Still Doing Our Thing [WEB] (2021) скачать бесплатно

Breaking the sound barrier with an inspired sense of purpose, rising star vibraphonist Behn Gillece leads his worthy constituents on an exciting quartet date of brilliant performances. The band features veterans Art Hirahara, Boris Kozlov and Rudy Royston. From the opening salvo to the last hurrah, the musical program remains melodically straight forward, elegantly lyrical and clearly suggestive of a modern jazz sensibility with hard-swinging highlights. Featuring an amazing combination of talents and an evocative collection of original compositions.-----------------------
 In the tradition of Milt Jackson, Bobby Hutcherson, Joe Locke, and the contemporary vibraphonists Warren Wolf, Stefon Harris and Joel Ross, to name a select group, the NYC-based Gillece is not only a master of his instrument but a formidable composer and bandleader. The group assembled here for Still Doing Our Thing includes label mainstays pianist Art Hirahara, bassist Boris Kozlov, and drummer Rudy Royston, with a guest appearance by saxophonist Nicole Glover. The album was recorded last August using safe protocols due to the pandemic at the usual Posi-Tone location, Acoustic Recording, Brooklyn, NY with label head Marc Free producing and Nick O’Toole engineering.
