Wednesday, May 15th at 9pm: The Jazz Record Art Collective is proud to present the Michael Benning Sextet performing Sam Jones' "Something in Common", released in 1977. ALBUM BACKGROUND: “In the 1970s, Jones' recordings as a leader were quite consistent, and Something in Common is a rewarding example of the type of solid, hard-swinging bop and post-bop that people expected from him. The only Jones piece that the sextet embraces is "Seven Minds"; other selections were written by Slide Hampton ("Every Man Is a King"), Cedar Walton ("Something in Common" and the better known "Bolivia"), and Blue Mitchell ("Blue Silver"). -Alex Henderson PERFORMANCES BY: Mike Benning -Bass Gomeh Barak - Trumpet Chris Madsen - Tenor Adam Thornburg - Trombone Richard Johnson - Piano Neil Hemphill - Drums Featured Visual Artist - Micah Rademacher ADMISSION & LOCATION: $10 admission.
