Gilad Edelman - My Groove, Your Move (Sharp Nine 2013)
Gilad Edelman is a relative rarity in today's jazz world - a youngster
(age 23 at the time of this recording) who plays completely
straight-ahead in the tradition of Cannonball, Stitt and Jackie McLean.
And a breath of fresh air it is: the big, sweet tone; the youthful
exuberance; the joy of ripping the changes - all suffused by the feeling
of the blues that is foundation of hard bop. Here joined by a fabulous
New York band comprised of Joe Magnarelli, David Hazeltine, John Webber
and Jason Brown, Edelman presents a varied and well paced set that
includes the seldom heard verse to I Love You, On the Street Where You Live, The Way You Look Tonight, the rarely heard samba Foi a Saudade, and the blues-drenched title tune, Hank Mobley's My Groove, Your Move. Hard bop lives!
