Rumble In the Great Lakes (Best of the Detroit Jazz Fest 2007)

2008-07-04

This double-disc release is some good jazz! The Stanley Jordan Trio's take on Miles Davis' "All Blues", The Classical Jazz Quartet's version of the Brandenburg Concerto #2, and the Gerald Wilson Orchestra's performance of Duke Ellington's "Perdido" are all highlights...and that's just disc one! Also, if you like blues, check out "Up South" by the Russell Malone Quartet. The guest saxophonist, Grace Kelly, was only 15 years old when this was recorded! Reviewed by Rebecca Ruth
