Our Take

WILD BILL DAVISON And His Jazzologists
Rating: 7.5

Wild Bill Davison's latest album with His Jazzologists is a delightful jazzy romp through the swinging sounds of the 1920s. Davison's trumpet playing is as sharp as ever, cutting through the mix with a cheeky flair that is sure to get your feet tapping.

The album kicks off with the toe-tapping "Swingin' with Wild Bill," a lively number that showcases Davison's virtuoso trumpet skills. The Jazzologists provide a solid backing, with tight rhythms and infectious melodies that transport you straight to the speakeasies of yesteryear.

Tracks like "Hot Jazz Shuffle" and "Smokey Blues" showcase the band's versatility, blending traditional jazz with modern sensibilities in a way that feels fresh and exciting. Davison's playful improvisations keep things interesting, injecting a sense of spontaneity that keeps you on your toes.

However, the album does have its low points. Some tracks feel a bit too derivative, relying too heavily on familiar jazz tropes without offering much in the way of innovation. But overall, Wild Bill Davison And His Jazzologists is a fun and enjoyable listen that will transport you back to a bygone era of jazz.

So grab a cocktail, put on your dancing shoes, and let Wild Bill Davison take you on a musical journey that is equal parts nostalgic and thrilling.
