This album, which I only recently discovered is growing on me more each time I’ve played it.
I really love how alive the current jazz scene is... I was raised old school so I do love the jazz of the 50’s and 60’s but the future is just so very bright for jazz.
Currently listening to plenty of Ambrose Akinmusire, Shabaka Hutchins and the Sons of Kehmet, Jamie Saft and the New Standard, Walter Smith the III, Plume, Aaron Parks, Christian Scott, Wotjeck Mazolewski,Tenderlonius, Kamaal Williams, Keyon Harrold, Allison Miller, Kamaasi Washington, Alfa Mist, Marcus Miller, Robert Glasper, Robert Loueke, Michael Wollny, Kirk Knuffke, Marcin Wasilewski, Butcher Brown, Avishai Cohen, Kendrick Scott, Shai Maestro, Omer Klein, Manu Katche, Tord Gustavsen, Benedict Jahnel to name a few... jazz is just so very alive and so very well.
Just now playing Makaya McCraven...

And don’t forget the new female jazz artists coming through, here’s a great article on some fresh talent.

There is so much new Jazz music to be discovered and rediscovered too; just not enough time in a life. ...Working on ...
The ACT label is a never ending stream of great new jazz. Qobuz has most (all?) their catalog online for streaming, and some of it even makes it to vinyl, in great quality too.
Yes it’s hard to keep up Bob. For me it’s the streaming accessibility that is making me realise just how much new music there is actually out there. Not complaining though
The British jazz scene has been on fire since the turn of the millennium. Was just saying to a mate the other day how culturally rich Britain has been in this regard over the last couple of decades.

In the 50s we didn't have computers with Internet jazz music access; so we didn't know how vast the Jazz music repertoire was...we (I was) were listening to John Coltrane then, and Thelonius Monk...in the 60s and 70s.
Now in the 20s (almost), we are reborn in Jazz.
...Seventy, sixty, fifty years (half century) later.
Of all the PM albums in my collection, this remains the one that gets most plays & it’s on again now......

Pretty killer modern big band sound, though I admit I've been listening more to the music than the gear.
Disclaimer: I know Rich and have at least met most of the rest of the guys on this album.
