Our Take

Red Rodney's latest album "Red Giant" is a bold, brassy, and downright bonkers addition to the jazz canon. From the moment the first trumpet blast hits your ears, you know you're in for a wild ride.

Rodney, known for his eccentric style and larger-than-life personality, doesn't hold back on "Red Giant." The album is a cacophony of sounds, with Rodney's trumpet soaring over a frenetic rhythm section that never misses a beat.

Tracks like "Fireball" and "Hot Mess" are frenzied masterpieces, filled with dizzying runs and unexpected twists and turns. Rodney's playing is as explosive as ever, with each note feeling like a tiny firework exploding in your brain.

But it's not all chaos and mayhem on "Red Giant." Rodney shows off his sensitive side on tracks like "Moonlight Serenade," where his trumpet takes on a hauntingly beautiful quality that will send shivers down your spine.

Overall, "Red Giant" is a triumph of insanity and ingenuity. Rodney has crafted a truly unique listening experience that is sure to delight and confound even the most seasoned jazz aficionados. So sit back, strap in, and prepare to be blown away by the Red Giant himself.
