MUSIC REVIEW BY George W Harris, Jazz Weekly

VIEW THE CD DETAIL PAGE

Alto saxist Jordan VanHemert bops hard with a team of Terell Stafford/tp, Michel Dease/tb, Helen Sung/p, Rodney Whitaker/b and Lewis Nash/dr on his fun and festive release. Van Hemert's alto is confident and assertive, not unlike Cannonball Adderley, as on the swaggering gospel grooved "Hard Times" that has him going toe to toe with Stafford, and bouncing like ESP era Miles on "Call To Order". The alto goes bel canto, on "Everything Changes, Everything Stays the Same" dueting with sympathy on "Autumn Song", and the team does the funky Chicken on "Blues For JT." Nash and Whitaker are a rhythm team from heaven, as crisp as an Italian suit throughout tapping into their inner Don Cornelius on "Superwoman" . Get your shufflin' shoes on for this one.
