Final Call
Final Call
With this new 2003 recording 12 tunes56 min., Ole "Fessor" Lindgreen is disbanding his Big City Band after a 35year European success story. Never content with the limitations of traditional jazz, Fessor once again makes wonderful music on this CD in his explorations of musical styles including old blues, bebop, Caribbean, AfroCuban and modern New Orleans rhythm blues. Basically a "modern" traditional jazz band, the music on this CD includes a classic modern jazz composition by Charles Mingus, a basic Leadbelly blues, a sweet love song by Ivory Joe Hunter, some modern New Orleans RB tunes and six Fessor originals. The band is made up of top Danish professionals, including both new and old Big City Band members, plus three guest artists. Violinist Kristian Jørgensen, clarinetist "Nulle " Nykjær and organist Kjeld Lauritsen are the guest soloists on the CD, making the exciting Big City Bands music even more of a pleasure to hear. The tunes average 56 minutes in length, giving the soloists plenty of time to really get in the groove. This is the most untraditional trad jazz youre ever going to hear a fitting finale for Ole Lindgreens Big City Band.
