Bill Warfield and the Hell’s Kitchen Funk Orchestra: Time Capsule

Trumpeter Bill Warfield leads a mix and match band through some tasty treats. Chrissi Poland is featured as the vocalist, and she’s got a sweet delivery, giving a gospel feel to “I Wish I Knew How It Would Be to Be Free” and fragrant on an ethereal “Alfi” and “Just My Imagination”. She bears down on “Please Send Me Someone To Love” while saxist Matt Honig wails on “Cold Sweat/I Got Feeling”. Warfield himself shines on his flugelhorn for “Chain Reaction” and his trumpet joyfully blasts out on ”Zoe’s Dance”. Accessible art.
