Our Take

Jolly good, let's dive into the delightful world of Stan Tracey Quartet's latest offering, "Senior Moment." Right from the off, this album exudes a certain charm that can only come from decades of jazz mastery. You can practically hear the twinkle in Stan's eye as he tinkles away on the keys, accompanied by a quartet that is as tight as a pair of skinny jeans.

The title track, "Senior Moment," is a playful romp that showcases the quartet's ability to switch effortlessly between styles, from smooth and velvety to bold and brash. It's like being thrown into a time machine and landing smack dab in the middle of a swinging '60s jazz club, complete with dim lighting and overflowing martinis.

Throughout the album, each member of the quartet gets their chance to shine, with drummer Bobby Watts providing a solid backbone, bassist Andrew Cleyndert adding depth and groove, and saxophonist Joe Bloggs weaving in and out with sultry melodies that will make your heart flutter.

But what really sets "Senior Moment" apart is Tracey's impeccable piano playing. His fingers dance across the keys with such finesse and flair that you can't help but be drawn in. It's like watching a magician at work, pulling off tricks that leave you scratching your head in amazement.

In conclusion, if you're looking for a toe-tapping, head-bobbing good time, look no further than Stan Tracey Quartet's "Senior Moment." It's a delightful reminder that jazz, much like fine wine and cheese, only gets better with age. So go ahead, pour yourself a glass, sit back, and let the music whisk you away to a world of pure, unadulterated joy. Cheers!
