Drummer Gaz Hughes will honour the music of one of the true jazz drumming greats. The art of ‘Jazz Messenger’ Art Blakey (1919-1990) – described by fellow drummer Max Roach as “Thunder” – is captured superbly by Hughes.

The feel-good factor is there: this quintet’s easy-swinging interpretation is refreshing, with Bruce Adams’ piercing trumpet improvisation a stand-out.  The entire ensemble sparkles as one; whilst classic jazz numbers are just that, it will be great to hear them portrayed by today’s players and with their depth and clarity.

Gaz Hughes  –  Drums and bandleader;
Alan Barnes –  Saxophones;
Bruce Adams  –  Trumpet;
Andrzej Baranek – Piano;
Ed Harrison – Bass.
