Joey Baron > What
Composed by Joey Baron

My friend Mike’s into Joey Baron and has been trying to get me to listen for 10 years; this set with Arthur Blythe, Bill Frisell, and Ron Carter has finally hit me. And this postmodern soul tag has gotten under his skin. He writes:

“I like the concept.  To me the soul part is a beat that makes you want to fuck; the jazz part is a sonic vocabulary hip enough to compensate for the missing singer; and the postmodern part is a willingness to tell a story that welcomes strangeness.”

Like he said.
