Our Take

"This album is like a delightful little surprise party for your ears, filled with the infectious joy and energy that only true jazz aficionados like Ken Colyer's Jazzmen can deliver. From the toe-tapping rhythms to the soulful melodies, 'Colyer's Pleasure' is a masterclass in feel-good music that will have you shimmying and shaking in no time.

The opening track 'Riverside Blues' sets the tone perfectly, with its catchy trumpet licks and swinging tempo that will transport you straight to a New Orleans jazz club. As the album progresses, you can't help but be swept away by the impeccable musicianship on display, with each member of the band shining in their own right.

Highlights include the toe-tapping 'High Society' where Colyer's cornet takes center stage, and the hauntingly beautiful 'Wild Cat Blues' which showcases the band's ability to seamlessly blend tradition with innovation. The infectious energy of 'Lonesome Road' is sure to get even the most reluctant jazz listener on their feet, while the closing track 'Jazz Me Blues' leaves you wanting more.

Overall, 'Colyer's Pleasure' is a must-listen for any jazz lover looking to inject some fun into their music collection. So grab a drink, kick back, and let Ken Colyer's Jazzmen take you on a musical journey you won't soon forget."
