4.0 out of 5 stars
Extremely worthwhile album, a lot of fun,
By
This review is from: D Stands for Diesel (Audio CD)
Karl Denson, tenor sax player for the San Diego-based Greyboy All-Stars, has produced an excellent album, guaranteed to make toes tap at your next house party. To call this acid jazz misses the point somewhat, given the mediocre quality of many performers in that genre. This is groove-oriented jazz, I have no idea why Karl and the rest of his Greyboy band mates aren't signed on Blue Note & making huge waves at jazz festivals all over the world. There are not only some great chops on this album, it's got great compositions and some intricate, complex interplay unheard in trendier groups. This album won't change the world, but it is a heck of a good time.

5.0 out of 5 stars
The perfect swing,
By Peter Christopher (Denver, CO) - See all my reviews

If you love jazz that's dripping with groove and soul, this is a classic. Denson's writing skills and the formula of these musicians make this a unique collection of grooves. A record that will never grow old.

If you really like traditional jazz, this is the CD for you. This guy plays the horn like they did in the old days of jazz, but with the technique of tomorrow.
