Our Take

SAUTER-FINEGAN ORCHESTRA - Four Classic Albums (2021)

The SAUTER-FINEGAN ORCHESTRA have always been a bit of an enigma in the world of jazz. Known for their quirky arrangements and offbeat rhythms, they have always marched to the beat of their own drum (quite literally, in some cases). This 4-in-1 album release gives listeners a taste of the band's eclectic sound, spanning from their early days to their more experimental later work.

Starting off with "Memories of Goodman and Miller," the orchestra pays homage to two of the greats in swing music. The arrangements are tight and the solos are smokin', making for a rollicking good time. Next up is "Inside Sauter-Finegan," where the band really lets loose and delves into some more avant-garde territory. The harmonies are out there, the rhythms are unconventional, and the overall effect is both baffling and brilliant.

Moving on to "Concert Jazz," the orchestra shows off their chops in a live setting, with electrifying performances that showcase their dynamic range and improvisational skills. And finally, "Under Analysis" brings things full circle, with a collection of tracks that highlight the band's unique blend of swing, bebop, and experimental jazz.

Overall, this album is a must-listen for fans of big band music with a twist. SAUTER-FINEGAN ORCHESTRA may be a bit off the beaten path, but their creativity and originality shine through on every track. It's a wild ride from start to finish, and one that's definitely worth taking.
