Legendary Jazz moving forward!
Legendary
jazz drummer, Jimmy Cobb, is the elder statesman of all the incredible Miles
Davis bands. Jimmy’s inspirational work with Miles, John Coltrane, Cannonball
Adderly and Co. spanned from 1957 until 1963, and included the masterpiece
"Kind of Blue", the most popular jazz recording in history.
Larry Coryell deserves a special place in the history books as one of the
pioneers of jazz-rock. He brought an alien sensibility to jazz electric guitar
playing in the 1960s. As a true eclectic, armed with a brilliant technique, he
is comfortable in almost every style, covering almost every base from the most
distortion-laden electric work to the most delicate, soothing, intricate lines
on acoustic guitar.
At the age of 10, virtuoso Joey DeFrancesco was playing gigs with
legendary musicians like Philly Joe Jones and Hank Mobley. After signing his first
recording contract with Columbia Records at age sixteen, he joined Miles Davis'
group in the late Eighties. The two-time Grammy Nominee, recognized as the
Master of the Jazz Organ, has put out over 20 recordings as a leader and
continues to collaborate with some of the top names in modern jazz. Joey
DeFrancesco is one of the jazz scene's true trailblazers.
This All Star Trio comes together in their latest recording, “Wonderful!
Wonderful!” to celebrate the spectacular past of jazz as well as its future.
