Our Take

Review:

In a world filled with mainstream pop and predictable beats, JOE BUSHKIN & BUCK CLAYTON's Three Classic Albums Plus is a refreshing blast from the past. This album is a journey through the golden age of jazz, where Bushkin's mesmerising piano skills and Clayton's soulful trumpet playing transport you to a smoky bar in 1940s New York City.

The first album, "After Hours," sets the tone with its smooth, laid-back vibes and impeccable musicianship. Bushkin's intricate piano solos weave seamlessly with Clayton's soulful trumpet to create a mesmerising listening experience. You can almost picture yourself sipping a cocktail and tapping your feet along to the music.

Next up is "The Street Swingers," a more upbeat and energetic album that showcases Bushkin and Clayton's versatility as musicians. From the swinging rhythms of "Swingin' at the Copper Rail" to the infectious melodies of "Blues for B.B.," this album will have you dancing in your living room in no time.

Finally, "Both Sides of Buck" takes things to a whole new level with its soulful ballads and heartfelt performances. Clayton's trumpet playing is nothing short of masterful, and Bushkin's piano accompaniment adds a touch of elegance to each track.

Overall, JOE BUSHKIN & BUCK CLAYTON's Three Classic Albums Plus is a must-listen for any jazz enthusiast looking to add some vintage flair to their music collection. So grab a glass of bourbon, dim the lights, and let these two jazz legends serenade you into a state of pure musical bliss. Cheers to that!
