Jazz tends to be overshadowed by the neo-conservationists who do not want the music to move forward and absorbed harmonic and rhythmic concepts of mainstream music--even though this has long been apart of the jazz tradition. But today more than ever jazz needs young people who embody this tradition in order to expand the audience and to continue to carry the torch of this great American Art form. Tia Fuller saxophonist for Beyonce' does this with music that captures the soul while maintaining the kind of artistic integrity expected of a world class jazz musician. The typical jazz critic would like people to be cerebral instead of do what a fan of any genre should do: listen and feel. When you hear "Decisive Steps" it feels just right.

I saw Tia and her latest band at the 2011 Saratoga Jazz Festival. They completely blew me away. I had no expectations that this album would be comparable to the live performance because the energy level was so high. Big mistake on my part. This CD has excellent performances. Her tone is strong and has depth as well as subtlty. Tia is a polished as she is cute and her sound has a maturity that also belies her looks. The bassist, Mirriam Sullivan is a standout and Shamie Royston (Tia's sister) on piano is just awesome. Tia should not wait so long to do her next album. Sorry Beyonce`, Tia's gifts belong in the jazz realm. Ebb & Flow is a very rhythmic cut that gets the toes tapping. Glide along with the group on "Windsoar". Listen to the entire album and pick your own favorites. Buy this album. If you like jazz.... well, you get the idea.

A real jazz ARTIST that knows 'GOOD' Jazz evolves. When you can't tell the first from the last ... things get very bland. This Artist is plethora of flavors. It's Jazztastic Jazz!
