Here’s an ensemble that knows how to lay down a groove. "Canteloupe Island" is performed by talented guitarist Alex Hutchings based in Bristol UK, with a Bangok gig band comprising Kevin Inthawong on keys, Anthony Parker on drums and Phoowich Tawasinchanadech on bass. This goes to demonstrate that (jazz-fusion) talent isn’t limited to the major markets. Solos begin at 1:47, with Hutchings flying on blues and modal riffs. Parker then ups the ante with tom fills. Based on where you may be in your jazz playing, this rendition either is likely remind you of your earlier jam days or make you want to learn this piece, pronto.
