Our Take

Pete Allen Jazz Band's latest album, On The Beatin, is a whimsical journey through the realms of traditional jazz with a modern twist. Allen, known for his impeccable skills on the clarinet, leads his band through a myriad of toe-tapping tunes that are sure to leave you feeling groovy.

The album kicks off with the infectious track "Swingin' In The Rain," a playful homage to the classic jazz standard that will have you bopping along in no time. Allen's virtuosity on the clarinet shines through on tracks like "Jumpin' Jive" and "Blues for You," showcasing his ability to effortlessly blend smooth melodies with fiery improvisation.

One of the standout tracks on the album is "Funky Fingers," a fun and funky ode to Allen's nimble fingers on the keys. The band's tight rhythm section keeps the energy high throughout, with lively drum fills and pulsating bass lines that perfectly complement Allen's playful clarinet riffs.

Overall, On The Beatin is a delightful offering from Pete Allen Jazz Band, brimming with infectious energy and top-notch musicianship. Whether you're a die-hard jazz fan or just looking for some toe-tapping tunes to brighten your day, this album is sure to hit all the right notes.
