DK Anderson: Quantum Truth

Tenor saxist and Rhodes keyboardist DK Anderson delivers a soulful stew of interpretations ranging form jazz to cool with a dash of Baby Boomer rock. He encircles himself with Maria Castellon/b, Dave DiStefano/g-dr, Diane Anderson/voc, Kai Ballard/dr and Enzo Belli/g, putting new paint on old fences. Dian Anderson gives a fun read to “I’m Hip” for starters, but a reggae’d take of Thelonious Monk’s “Epistrophy” is a great and gutsy call. The band goes bel canto for David Bowie’s “Lady Grinning Soul” with Anderson’s tenor nice and breathy on “’Round Midnight.” Belli and Castellon get fun and jivey on “Can You Dig It” and some Soul Train hipness goes down right on “All The Things You Are.” Jazz is definitely a verb on this release!
