🎶 TONIGHT || The Chicago Soul Jazz Collective refreshes the sounds of the city’s postbop era FitzGerald’s
Since 2018, the Chicago Soul Jazz Collective has made waves in town by resurrecting the stylish grooves of the postbop era, which began in the late 1950s—nationally, the sound was shaped by the likes of the Jazz Crusaders, Cannonball Adderley, and, and in Chicago the Rush Street club scene was at its height.
The range of these songs—the nighttime neosoul of “Crazy Wrong,” the Latin-tinged groove of “Carry Me,” layered with breezy soloing by Brown and trumpeter Marques Carroll—showcases Alexander’s versatility and strengths. Judging by its title, the instrumental “Behind the Crusaders” is presumably a tribute to the Jazz Crusaders, a multifaceted group that in the 1960s and 1970s erased all sorts of genre boundaries.
