More Info:
Joined by the highly individual voice of John Stowell on guitar, and four dynamic Bay-area musicians, guitarist Jason Keiser dives into the music and aesthetic of trumpeter Woody Shaw's great recordings of the '70s. His most popular originals, "The Moontrane" "Zoltan," and "Katerina Ballerina," as well as his live repertoire standards "Obsequious," and "Organ Grinder," are orchestrated for the special grouping of two guitars, trumpet and baritone saxophone for the front line, with a powerful rhythm section providing a buoyant, churning momentum. Keiser offers his own "Shaw's Groove" as a coda and a nod to Woody's influence over generations, often considered to be the last great trumpet innovator.back to top
