Our Take

Ben Allison's latest offering, "Cowboy Justice," is a wild ride through the rugged terrain of modern jazz. The album opens with "Brokeback Boogie," a toe-tapping ode to the cowboy spirit that will have you dusting off your spurs and reaching for your lasso. Allison's double bass skills are on full display, providing a sturdy backbone for the playful saxophone and trumpet solos that gallop across the track.

Tracks like "High Noon Hustle" and "Desperado's Delight" showcase Allison's ability to blend traditional jazz elements with a touch of spaghetti western flair. The result is a musical showdown that will have you reaching for your Stetson hat and imagining yourself riding off into the sunset.

Throughout the album, Allison's bandmates shine with their virtuosic performances, adding layers of depth and complexity to each track. Whether it's the frantic drumming of Rudy Royston on "Quick Draw Shuffle" or the soulful piano melodies of Frank Kimbrough on "Saddle Up Swing," every member of the band brings something special to the table.

"Cowboy Justice" is a bold and adventurous album that pays homage to the rugged individualism of the American west while pushing the boundaries of traditional jazz. So saddle up, partner, and get ready for a musical journey that's as wild and untamed as the frontier itself. Yeehaw!
