' '
,: New York trumpeter, Eddie Allen, leads this ensemble he calls :,
: PUSH through a baker's dozen of tunes, including ten original :
:' compositions. The album title "Rhythm People" says it all. The ':
,: arrangements splash on the scene with mad rhythms. They push the :,
: title track ahead in 6/8 time, adding an African flair to the :
:' arrangement. A quarter of the way through, the PUSH ensemble ':
,: changes the groove to a bluesy 4/4 Straight-ahead feel, letting :,
: Eddie Allen lead the way on his sensuous trumpet. Once Allen's :
:' soulful solo is complete, special guest, Steve Turre soaks up ':
,: the spotlight on his trombone. I also found Tyler Bullock II :,
: quite captivating during his piano improvisational solo. :
:' ':
,: Their tribute to Maurice White, founder of Earth Wind & Fire, is :,
: more contemporary jazz with a funky groove. :
:' ':
,: Eddie Allen's production showcases his composer skills, but they :,
: also include familiar standards like Ellington's "Mood Indigo" :
:' surprisingly transformed to a Reggae arrangement by Allen. They ':
,: also cover the pop song, "Our Day Will Come." :,
: :
:' A song titled "Daybreak" swings hard and sounds like a tune ':
,: that a big band would love to play. Steve Turre is awesome :,
: during his trombone solo. The horn lines add color and :
:' excitement to this Allen arrangement. Johnathan Beshay adds his ':
,: tenor saxophone brilliance to lift the production. Eddie Allen :,
: takes a turn to solo. He always fires up the band. This quickly :
:' becomes one of my favorite tunes on the Eddie Allen PUSH album. ':
,: Kenny Davis is king on his acoustic bass. He steals the :,
: spotlight during his energy-driven solo. :
:' ':
,: Allen's musical choices are inclusive of various genres, all :,
: embracing the rhythms that make us snap fingers, tap our toes, :
:' or dance. There are shades of Latin jazz, reggae pulses, swing ':
,: and Straight-ahead, blended seamlessly into more contemporary :,
: arrangements. This rhythmical jazz production transcends age or :
:' genre. It captures the essence of jazz creativity on a number ':
,: of levels and entertains with rhythms that EJ Strickland slaps :,
: from his drums, inspiring the PUSH ensemble to pull excitement :
:' from each instrumentalist. You clearly hear this energy on the ':
,: Allen composition, "The Journey." :,
: :
:' Here is an amazing album I will play over and over again, ':
,: discovering something new and unheard with each listen. This is :,
: music that connects, resonates and swings through the heart, :
:' body and soul. ':
