John Nau - Four Corners
In 1995, John Nau debuted one of the earliest
albums on Posi-Tone Records, called Undercurrents.
He reunites with our label for his
most recent work, the album Four Corners
(2024), marking the beginning of the label's
30-year anniversary celebration.
Diego Rivera - Ofrenda
The lineup includes excellent work from trumpeter Terrell Stafford, whose sense of color really matches that of Diego – as the pair work with soulful rhythms from a trio who are becoming a rock-solid force for the Posi-Tone label. - Dusty Groove
Ryan Keberle - Bright Moments
The interplay among the musicians
is nothing short of spectacular, highlighting their individual
talents while creating a cohesive, synergistic
sound.
Art Hirahara - Good Company
We're not sure we've ever heard the blend of these three instruments together in a small group setting, but the results are wonderful – with the warmth of Art's piano next to the leaner sounds of Bollenback's guitar, all punctuated by work on trumpet and flugelhorn from Horton.
- Dusty Groove
Luther Allison - I Owe It All To You
It's clear from the start that Allison's the star of the show, as he has a way of setting up the tunes wonderfully at the start, then swinging them home with these fluid solos that often evoke old school giants of the format – like Chicagoans John Wright or John Young. - Dusty Groove
Markus Howell - Chosen Path
Warmly-crafted alto work from Markus Howell – a player with an easygoing, soulful approach – one that almost feels at times like an updated take on territory that Hank Crawford was hitting in the 70s! - Dusty Groove
