Soulful piano-led big band. Wonderful performances, tight arrangements and great playing. The band has wonderful chemistry and Evans’ compositions are engaging and nicely unpredictable. A great soul/blues touch to their performances adds extra style. *1. Delicious downtempo stomp w/great work from the band. *2. Dramatic solo piano intro to driving, upbeat jam. Yay! 3. Tripping, trilling, quirky. Varying tempos & textures. 4. Slow and lyrical with lots of silence adding drama. *5. Fast & fiery crazy energy and wild horn work. *6. Sophisticated piano/perc intro then the horns heat up. *7. Mid/upbeat w/a quirky bounce and tight playing. Fun. 8. Down/midtempo w/ a sweeping air & piano accents. 9. Mid/upbeat w/a tight, sophisticated groove. | ||
