Gary Urwin Jazz Orchestra: Kindred Spirits
by Todd S. Jenkins
The liner notes tout this band as “a veritable who's who among the Los Angeles area's most accomplished studio and big-band artists." That's quite true, which is precisely why Kindred Spirits falls a bit flat. It shares much of its personnel with most every other white big band project in Southern California, which makes it essentially ...
Brian Swartz Trio: Three

Gary Urwin's third CD recording puts both guests in the spotlight alongside the band's capable roster of Los Angeles all-stars. The frequent musical conversations between Watrous and Christlieb (trading fours) gives Kindred Spirits a beautiful luster. Their sleek, ...

In addition to his arsenal of flutes from every musical register, he's elected this time out to add soprano sax and several poignant vocals to the program. Shelton's lyrical flute warbles like a songbird in the ...

As Gary Urwin's smoking arrangement of Lester Young's “Lester Leaps In sprang through the headphones, I was grinning from ear to ear, and the smile seldom slackened ...
