Release Notes:
When JAZZ.FM91 invited Archie Alleyne and "Kollage"
to join the stellar line-up which would comprise
the important 2005-2006 30th anniversary season of
the radio station's popular "Sound of Toronto Jazz"
Series of live concerts, it was with the confidence
that the band's hard-swinging excitement and
pulsating energy in "A Tribute to Art Blakey" would
exemplify the excellence which has distinguished
the series throughout the past three decades.
And so it did, with brilliant Canadian drummer
Archie Alleyne bringing his own superlative sense
of rythm to a tribute that vividly recalled the
late Art Blakely's mastery of the drums and
memorable approach to jazz for a SRO audience of
dedicated jazz fans.
The multi award-winning "Kollage" is that kind of
band today, with Archie Alleyne at the drums,
co-leader Doug Richardson on tenor sax, Alexis Baro
on trumpet, Mei Kelly on trombone, Ron Johnston on
bass, and Robi Botos on piano, flawlessly driving
home their own characterization of the kind of
hard-bop that gave Art Blakely legendary status for
several decades.
