Steve Turre: Generations

Steve Turre Wallace Roney Jr., Emilio Modeste u. a.

Steve Turre was apprenticed early in his career to some of jazz's greatest masters - Art Blakey, Rahsaan Roland Kirk, Woody Shaw and Ray Charles. In recent years, he has fanned the same flame in a younger generation of rising stars. On his new album, Generations, Turre brings the eras together by inviting still-living legends to join a talented band of up-and-comers to pay tribute to the elders who shaped his sound "Generations" features, among others, the trombonist's son, drummer Orion Turre, and trumpeter Wallace Roney Jr. whose late father was a close friend and colleague of Turre. Also included in the youthful core band are pianist Isaiah J. Thompson and bassist Corcoran Holt. Over the course of the album, saxophonist James Carter, guitarists Ed Cherry and Andy Bassford, keyboardist Trevor Watkis, bassists Buster Williams and Derrick Barnett, drummers Lenny White and Karl Wright, and percussionist Pedrito Martinez join this outstanding group.
