The Jazz Man

Posted by Christopher Smith Thu, 18 Jan 2007 23:04:00 GMT

A little over a month ago, my brother released his first album: Circumstance. He has been on recordings before, but this one is his own compositions, and it is his quintet. I am not a Jazz aficianado, so I cannot say with any kind of authority that this is great Jazz, but I can say that I very much enjoy listening to it, and I suspect if you like Jazz at all you would too. Unlike some modern Jazz which is either so smooth it puts you to sleep or so aggressively out there it mainly appeals through shock value, the sound is very true to Jazz’s traditions, while still being inspired and inventive.
