SF Jazz Collective Live 2010: 7th Annual Concert Tour 2010
[ATTACH=CONFIG]564[/ATTACH]
I first got into the SF Jazz Collective (nee, San Francisco Jazz Collective) with its first release because Joshua Redman was the leader. Redman was, and remains, my favorite Jazz musician. He has since move on from the SF Jazz Collective, but my interest in them continues. I expected to not enjoy the group as much without Redman, but I'm actually enjoying them more. Over the years, the membership has been fluid, so he hasn't been the only change to the roster. Overall, I think the changes have made the group stronger and more adventurous.
This is a 3-CD release and I listened to all three discs this morning. There are so many great moments, but I tend to favor the up-tempo tracks. This is distinctly modern Jazz, but it is firmly grounded in the 60s style.
Side note: I saw this iteration perform a couple of weeks ago and loved every minute. I was fortunate enough to get three of the members to sign this CD, which I bought at the event. :biggrin1:
