Big-toned trombonist Ben Patterson digs in deep with his team of Shawn Purcell/g, Harry APpelman/B3-p-synth, Paul Henry/b, Todd Harrison/dr, Luis Hernandez/ts and even joins in the vocals with Evan Reiger and Purcell. His horn fills the room on his solo intro to “What Happens Next” before Henry’s electric bass takes the team into the world of soulful harmonies and pulses. Purcell’s guitar gives some Soul Train feel to “This and That” and digs a rivulet for the leader on “Here Now”” while Hernandez brings his beefy tenor for some thick preaching on “Anniversary Patio” and a Famous Flamer of “The Way Of The Groove”. The heads are bobbing and the toes tapping for this one.
