Brian Smith
Here's another re-issue from the wonderful ODE archives, this time showcasing the talents of Brian "Hard Bop" Smith, top saxophonist then (in the 80s) as he is now.
A recent repeat viewing of the wonderful Ken Burns "Jazz" Series reminded me of just how simple the start of this music was – combine 3 chord Negro blues and the New Orleans marching band tradition and look where it's gone!
This album carries the diversity direction further with the fabulous "Quito" – very Andean with bamboo flute leading and wonderful interplay between bass and Martin Winch on acoustic guitar...
