The Bosworth Brothers
When Lions Roar
Great jazz outing more reminiscent of CTI in the ‘70s than Blue Note in the ‘60s. The brothers
excel on sax and flute and they have a sextet with very competent players, including trumpet,
guitar, bass, and drums.
Genre: Jazz
FCCs: none
If you like: Stanley Turrentine, Hubert Laws, Freddie Hubbard, George Benson (before Breezin’)
Favorite tracks: Manifestation, Pootie, Many Moons, Everything Must Change
1. Full bop romp
2. Uptempo jam – big brassy horns with fabulous trumpet solo
3. Guitar opens> uptempo swing
4. Guitar opens> uptempo flute & piano duet
5. Midtempo jam with flute/sax/piano
6. Gorgeous flute & piano duet
7. Guitar opening> uptempo dual sax jam
8. Spoken word with accompaniment
9. Big horns> nice piano solo
10. Midtempo jam> sax reminiscent of Eric Dolphy> nice piano solo> nice trumpet solo
11. Guitar opens> midtempo jam, reminiscent of Monk with Dolphy
12. Midtempo blues strut with fat horns
13. Uptempo jam with sax and flute
