Our Take
Our Take
David Hazeltine's "Blues For Gerry" is a delightful homage to the classic blues sound, with a modern twist that will have you tapping your feet and nodding your head in no time.
The album kicks off with the title track, a smooth and soulful tune that sets the tone for the rest of the record. Hazeltine's masterful piano playing is front and centre, supported by a tight rhythm section that keeps the grooves going strong.
Tracks like "Strollin' With Sally" and "Hazy Blues" showcase Hazeltine's versatility as a musician, with his fingers dancing across the keys in a way that is both playful and effortless. The melodies are catchy, the solos are fiery, and the overall vibe is just plain fun.
But it's not all about the piano on this album - the horn section adds a dynamic layer to the music, with brassy accents and soulful solos that will make you feel like you're right in the middle of a smoky jazz club in the heart of New Orleans.
Overall, "Blues For Gerry" is a joy to listen to from start to finish. Hazeltine's passion for the blues shines through in every note, and his talent as a composer and bandleader is on full display. So grab a glass of whisky, sit back, and let this album take you on a musical journey you won't soon forget. Cheers to that!
