Our Take

Hayes Tubby's "Jazz From London 1957" is a delicious, toe-tapping romp through the swinging sounds of the British jazz scene. Tubby, with his larger-than-life personality and even bigger sound, effortlessly leads his band through a captivating journey of groove and melody.

From the opening notes of "London Swing" to the soulful strains of "East End Blues," Tubby and his bandmates showcase their virtuosity and infectious energy. The album is a testament to Tubby's mastery of the saxophone, with every note he plays seemingly bursting with life and vitality.

The rhythm section, comprised of some of London's finest musicians, lays down a solid foundation for Tubby's acrobatic soloing. Drummer Ronnie Jones and bassist Pete Long provide a swinging backdrop that keeps the music moving forward with gusto.

Tracks like "Soho Stomp" and "Chelsea Shuffle" are brimming with charm and whimsy, capturing the essence of London's vibrant jazz scene in the 1950s. Tubby's playful improvisations and melodic inventiveness are a joy to listen to, drawing the listener in with their infectious energy.

Overall, "Jazz From London 1957" is a delightful and engaging album that showcases Tubby Hayes at the height of his powers. Whether you're a seasoned jazz aficionado or a casual listener looking for some toe-tapping tunes, this album is sure to hit all the right notes. Highly recommended.
