All About Jazz likes what it hears on “Bright Side” by Doug Webb

leave a comment

From one perspective, Doug Webb‘s Bright Side is basically twelve tracks clothed in very recognizable forms —a few varieties of soul-jazz, a couple of heartfelt ballads, a taut bossa nova, and an array of middling and up tempo straight- ahead swingers.

Midwest record is the first to look on the “Bright Side” by Doug Webb

leave a comment
