Wednesday, November 28th at 9pm: The Jazz Record Art Collective is proud to present the Alejandro Urzagaste Quartet performing Willis Jackson's "Bar Wars", released in 1978. ALBUM BACKGROUND: "Willis Jackson, a veteran of the jazz-oriented R&B music of the late '40s, was a powerful tenor in the tradition of Gene Ammons. This is a particularly exciting release with Charles Earland pumping away at the organ, guitarist Pat Martino offering a contrasting solo voice and Jackson in top form, wailing away on the uptempo pieces. The CD reissue of the original LP adds two alternate takes to the program. The chord changes might be fairly basic but Willis Jackson plays with such enthusiasm and exuberance that it almost sounds as if he had discovered the joy of playing music." -Scott Yanow PERFORMANCES BY: Alejandro Urzagaste - Guitar Eric Schneider - Sax Pete Benson - Keys George Fludas - Drums ADMISSION & LOCATION: Doors open at 8:00pm.
