Originally the blues were considered the basis, or the soul of jazz, but today many jazz artists don’t include any in their performances at all. As a composer, and a pianist, I ALWAYS want to include the blues though! I really love what the band contributed on this - Luques Curtis on bass sounds so cool on the intro! Igmar Thomas on trumpet really kicks in about halfway through on the bridge - I just love that part! Rudy Royston on drums is just feeding us all the best grooves too. I know a lot of people don't think about the sound too much, but the recording is stellar - the piano, trumpet - everyone sounds really good sound wise don't you think?
Near the end we wind up with a slow blues after the fireworks. It is always exciting working with our band on new music and I'm really happy how "And Some Blues..." turned out. It is hard though to shoot a video while you are actually recording the tune, because you are really focused on playing and listening rather than looking at the camera, but I think director Ricky Chavez did a really good job on showing musicians hard at work creating all new music. We hope you like it too!
