 | Welcome to 2010
| 7/29/2010 8:22:07 PM - 2009 was a very intense year for me as usual, but on another level.
My last solo album came out on Criss Cross entitled "Mirages" featuring Mulgrew Miller, Boris Kozlov, Seamus Blake and Johnathan Blake, and I am current preparing to record yet another album for Criss Cross which will come out in April 2010. Gerry Teekins, Criss Cross label head, had asked me for many years now to make a project dedicated to Woody Shaw, and I feel now is an appropriate time. What's kept me from doing this project in the past was that there have been many of these type of dedication albums and I wanted to find my own angle, not just to play Woody's tunes with a killer rhythm section -- you know what I mean...So hopefully it's going to work out. We're recording in a quartet format with Adam Rogers, Antonio Sanchez and Boris Kozlov, with some covers of Woody's tunes as well as some of my own originals dedicated especially to this project.

| | PRINTS Released May 25, 2007 from Criss Cross Jazz | | Alongside the making of my ArtistShare project OUT OF THE CIRCLE, I also made a recording for Criss Cross Jazz entitled PRINTS. As explained in my blogs, PRINTS is in a way a musical prologue to OUT OF THE CIRCLE. Featuring David Kikoski, Scott Colley, Antonio Sanchez and Chris Potter, you can read the liner notes here on my news page written by John Kelman ("All That Jazz"). And for you OUT OF THE CIRCLE participants, the artwork is pretty much finished up and going to the pressing plant on Monday June 11 (my birthday) so the wait is almost over! Sorry for the delay. |  | |
