Neil Swainson- Fire In The West (CD)
SKU: 875531022056
A long-time fan of the front-line pairings of the 1950s bands of Miles Davis, Art Blakey and Horace Silver (for whom "Silver Mine" is dedicated), Swainson shaped both his compositions and the blue-chip rhythm section of pianist Renee Rosnes (with whom he'd worked in the 1990s cross border band Free Trade) and Lewis Nash around this stylistic post-bop conception.
Tracklist:
- Fire in the West
- Fool's Gold
- Cascades
- Standing Back
- Fell Among Thieves
- Kyushu
- Late Afternoon
- Near North
- Gone Away
- Silver Mine
