James Carter & John Medeski - Heaven On Earth
(CD/Digital) Half Note Records, 2009-08-25
Saxophonist James Carter and organist John Medeski (of the pioneering jam-band, Medeski, Martin & Wood) lead a supergroup featuring Christian McBride (bass), Adam Rogers (guitar) and Joey Baron (drums). Together they carve out a groove that captures the buzz and vitality of jam-jazz at its most exhilerating. Recorded live at the Blue Note in New York, the group throws down the funk on Django Reinhardt's Diminishing, Larry Young's Heaven On Earth, Leo Parker's Blue Leo, and the songbook standard, Street Of Dreams.
