Tonight s Jazz Feature is a new voice on the big baritone saxophone. His name is Jason Marshall. He is an "in your face" player with a huge deep sound and tons of technique and facility to get around the big horn. He has had great teachers like Hamiet Bluiett, Ronnie Cuber and Gary Smulyan. His inspiration comes from listening long and hard to Bruce Johnson, Leo Parker and Nick Brignola and of course Pepper Adams. Jason has a concept all his own and plays with deep respect for the great Jazz tradition of melodic and swinging improvisation.. He is backed on this quartet date by Marc Cary on piano, Gerald Cannon on bass and the great Willie Jones III on drums. This rhythm section can t miss! Enjoy this wonderful album by some of the young veterans of Jazz and Jason Marshall, a great new baritone saxophone voice. "New Beginnings" is tonight s Jazz Feature and it comes from the Cellar Live label thanks to producer Jeremy Pelt and Cory Weeds.Jason MarshallNew Beginning
