Editorial Reviews

Billboard named him one of the "faces to watch." Ebony chose him as one of the "30 Young Leaders Under 30." He has performed with the likes of Prince, Mos Def, DJ Muggs, Marcus Miller and Glen Ballard; topped the Downbeat 2009 Critic's Poll for Trumpeter of the Year; and has appeared alongside George Clooney in the film Leatherheads as well as in the critically acclaimed Jonathan Demme film Rachel Getting Married. The man in question is GRAMMY nominated trumpeter Christian Scott, and on March 30, 2010, the 26 year-old New Orleans native returns with Yesterday You Said Tomorrow, his highly anticipated, all-new 10-song collection. Recorded at the renowned Van Gelder Studio in Englewood Cliffs, New Jersey and engineered by one of the greatest recording engineers in jazz history known for his work with John Coltrane, Miles Davis and Herbie Hancock, Rudy Van Gelder himself, Yesterday You Said Tomorrow marks the star trumpeter's fourth Concord release. Please take a listen to this dynamic and exciting new project.

5.0 out of 5 stars Jazz for the new generation!, April 15, 2010
By 
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Yesterday You Said Tomorrow (Audio CD)
First off let me say that I'm a devoted Christian Scott fan. I believe Christian is forging a new path in jazz music, one that blends elements of hip hop,alt rock and funk or basically he's a artist who is making music that's influenced by the times in which he lives & in my opinion you can't get much more real than that. Onto the music.
Yesterday you Said Tomorrow is in my mind a slightly different direction for Christian. First off Scott has come with a new bassist & pianist two guys that are new names to me on piano Milton Fletcher Jr & on bass Kris Funn. He's also scaled his band down from a sextet to a quintet & for the first time not recording with Walter Smith iii on tenor sax or any of the musicians who appeared on his last three albums. This album was recorded at the historical Englewood Cliffs NJ studio of the legendary engineer Rudy Van Gelder. Fans of the classic 50s & 60s Blue Note era jazz should recognize that name. The sound of this recording is very live, alot more so than his previous albums Anthem or Rewind That which both feature a more modern & sleek production aesthetic. This records sound is a return to a more live in the studio band sound of the classic Blue Note era albums of the 50s & 60s, which is a welcome bit of nostalgia for me. If I had to describe the music herein with only a few words I would say this batch of tunes has a Miles Davis melodic simplicity & elegance with Radiohead influenced song structures & keyboard textures with a more guitar & drum heavy sound that is intense but never bombastic or overbearing. Starting the album off is my personal favorite K.K.P.D (Ku Klux Police Dept) which opens with drummer Jamire Williams laying down a intense tribal feeling tom tom groove paired along side Matt Steven's atmospheric guitar playing until finally after about a minute Christian enters with a hushed muted simple melodic line that rides the groove & builds in intensity. Next is a cover of Radiohead front man Tom Yorke's Eraser given a subdued muted trumpet statement with Jamire Williams on brushes. After All a tune by guitarist Matt Stevens is a more funky number escalating slightly in intensity with bassist Kunn laying down a playful hypnotic groove with Scott playing on open horn with piano & guitar in three part harmony, which for me is a highlight of Scott's group sound. Isadora is a beautiful ballad which debuted in 08 on Scott's Live at Newport, this melody in my opinion is what a great melody should be, a singable & fairly simple but very beautiful line. This ballad features the pianist with a beautiful piano intro & well paced solo. I won't continue with a track by track overview because I'm a firm believer in something Miles Davis was quoted saying often when asked to give track analysis"Let the music speak for it's self". I hope I have provided the reader with a clear start to this great work. Also I believe this album is more of a creeper in the sense that it takes a few listens to really grow on you because it's a fairly drastic direction change compared to his last two releases. I also think this is some of his best work to date & look forward to his next offering. Check out this great new work!

5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing! I was thinking about this album for days., August 29, 2010
This review is from: Yesterday You Said Tomorrow (Audio CD)
Have you ever watched a movie that slightly confused you, yet you found yourself thinking about it days later realizing you saw something amazing? Well that's the feeling I got listening to this album. I've just recently got back into listening to jazz. After years of exposure to smooth jazz muzak, I was determined to search out for a little more thought-provoking jazz. I started with the basic, Miles Davis' "Kind of Blue", which I loved. Then I started to find other incredible jazz albums like "Mingus Ah Um" and "Love Supreme". But I wanted to find really good contemporary jazz albums that evoked that feeling I got from listening to those classics. Unfortunately my search was harder than I expected. Even looking at the Top 100 in the Jazz section I found many decent jazz albums but nothing to keep me thinking about them. In other words they were unchallenging.

I think the genre as a whole kind of suffers the way learning did during the Middle Ages, where you have people that reverent the past so much that they never seek to build upon it and take it in new directions. And even when some try to fuse it with more "modern" styles the music still sound stifled because the "styles" seem to take hold of the composition (I guess attempts at being crossover) rather than just influencing the works. Well you can imagine my surprise to see a jazz album in the Top Ten picks for Amazon's Music picks for 2010. I thought: `what is so different about this album from the other recently (and more popular) jazz albums released?'

Just one listen to Christian Scott's cover of Thom Yorke's "The Eraser" brought me to attention. What made it stand out was the way he layered the piece with the electronic/alternative edge but maintains a "jazz" sound and mood. He doesn't play into that attempted crossover pitch. That to me was refreshing. The whole album has a style that resembles what I hear from the jazz greats, but it doesn't copy and it doesn't hold itself within a frame of what is seen as traditional jazz today. This is a very dynamic and I would say important album for jazz to me.

5.0 out of 5 stars Yesterday's sounds, today, May 10, 2010
This review is from: Yesterday You Said Tomorrow (Audio CD)
I first heard of Christian Scott, when I saw him play at the Newport JazzFest in 2006. That brief ocean-side set, was one of the highlights of the weekend. Three studio albums later, Scott is still a highlight of the contemporary jazz world. With 'Yesterday you said Tomorrow', Scott takes a more focused approach, and provides a more consistent album, than ever before. The political themes that were brewing in 'Anthem' take a center stage on this album (ie. tracks: "Angola, LA & The 13th Amendment", "The Last Broken Heart (Prop 8)")

The track most people will probably steer towards, at first, is Scott's take on Thom Yorke's 'The Eraser'. This track features some stellar production, and maintains the controlled chaos of the original, while giving it a looser feel. The cover photograph gives much away, looking at it, you can tell this album takes a more simple/ no frills approach than his previous albums. Scott's music is elegant, simple and mature. An instant classic.
