Here's a little window into what's going on, in terms of new jazz.
Lori Bell |
Her new CD is quintessential Lori Bell, mellifluous flute playing unlike anyone else I have heard, except maybe Eric Dolphy. It reminds me of her third release, Lori Bell Quartet (2002), the first CD we got in from Ms. Bell here at WICN.
Her new CD is a tribute to the great tenor saxophonist Joe Henderson. She plays a number of his tunes, but check out her original tune Outer Urge in the second hour.
That opens up a set that includes saxophonist Willie Morris playing Kenny Dorham's La Mesha, a beautiful ballad that appears on Joe Henderson's debut release, Page One.
And the set concludes with a track from Joe Henderson himself.
Willie Morris
Saint-Louis-based tenor saxophonist Willie Morris has released his second album, called Attentive Listening. It's good. As mentioned, he has a fine version of La Mesha. Most of the other songs on the CD are originals, and they are all very well done.

Enjoy the budding flowers of spring.
