Alto saxist Christopher Hollyday gives a rich blue plate special of sounds from vintage Blue Note sessions of The Jazz Messengers on this toe tapping mix of covers and originals. His team of Gilbert Castellanos/tp, Joshua White/p, Rob Thorsen/b and Tyler Kreutel/dr and are in a muscular mood, bopping with authority on the cruising title track and happy on the peppy “Text Tones.” Hollyday’s horn is filled with chlli paste, hot and spicy with a rich vibrato with White on “You Make Me Feel So Young” while giving an aria with the rhythm team on a glorious “Dedicated to You”. Castellanos glistens to the clever bounce of Grofe’s “On The Trail” and the rhythm team sizzles to the Latin table dance of “ Pau de Arara”. Thorsen’s fingers do some digital dexterity as he leads the charge on “Minor Pulsation” with the horns stampeding like a scene from Red River. Flexed muscles in swing mode.
