Alto sax legend Bud Shank's final recording as leader of his quartet!
Recorded live in 2009 at LA’s world famous Jazz Bakery. Features longtime Bud Shank Quartet members Bill Mays, Bob Magnusson, and Joe LaBarbera. A diverse album of straight-ahead jazz featuring different time signatures and rhythmic elements.
“This was Bud Shank’s final performance with his quartet. What a way to go out—roaring, full of life, full of fun, full of music—with a rhythm section he loved in the town where he shaped his career. ‘We haven’t lived in Los Angeles in years,’ he told the Jazz Bakery audience in January 2009, ‘and it’s really good to be home.’” — Doug Ramsey
“A charter member of the ‘West Coast’ jazz movement, Shank’s cool but always strongly swinging sound has made him one of a handful of saxophone players with an instantly recognizable and always exciting sound. Bud Shank has more than earned his status as a legend.” — All About Jazz
“An alto saxophonist and flutist who helped propel cool-school West Coast jazz to prominence in the 1950s and fostered the melding of American and Brazilian music that created the bossa nova … a versatile player, both as a sideman and bandleader, in a wide variety of musical arenas, from big band swing to symphonic to pop, with a wide variety of collaborators.” — New York Times
“Shank’s sound, somewhere between Phil Woods and Lee Konitz, has added so much grit since his early days on the sound stages of Los Angeles.” — JazzTimes
