Jared Gold: Reemergence

Somewhere in heaven, God decided to create the perfect blend of sounds, and thus teamed the Hammond B3 with a guitar. In this case, Jared Gold teams his Leslies with guitarist David Stryker and the spirited drumming of Billy Hart for a mix of standards and team-based compositions. Gold oozes through a creative harmonic take of “It Ain’t Necessarily So” while simmering on “How Long Has This Been Going On.” He pulls the plugs on a gospel groover “Sweet Sweet Spirit” and lets Stryker loose awhile Hart brushes along like a home plate umpire on “She’s Leaving Home.” Trumpeter Jeremy Pelt adds some post bop brass to the kinetic title track and brings funky soul to “One For John A” and the soulful strutting “Lookin’ For Another Pure Love.” Comfort food for the ears.
