From the GZ archives: a bright 12 bar blues jam inspired by Miles Davis’ Walking with Chick’s Origin band rhythm section – Avishai Cohen on bass and Adam Cruz on drums. Glenn Zottola – I get a call very late one night from Chick Corea and he says “what are doing”. I say I am very tired going to bed. He says why don’t you grab your trumpet and alto and come over. It’s like getting a call from Mozart how can you say no. I get there literally half asleep and we do 2 tunes one take each and I go back home back to bed. Next day he hands me this tape. What a joy to play with this band real loose swingin jazz at it’s best.
