Top L.A. jazz keyboardist
Beasley headed east to
record this smoking sextet set with such
Gotham mainstays as drummer Jeff “Tain”
Watts and trumpeter Brian Lynch. Downstairs,
James Genus delivers state-of-the-art
doubling with maximum upright swing and
interplay on the title track and solo space
on “Dindi,” and savvy funk groove interpretations
on “So Tired” and “Elle.”
