Tenor saxophonist Wayne Escoffery brings it all back home on his latest release "Uptown," available now from Posi-Tone. With a strong program of new originals, by Escoffery and guitarist Avi Rothbard, and a few familiar melodies, the album also showcases strong showings by organist Gary Versace and drummer Jason Brown who really keeps the session in the pocket. Avid listeners will certainly agree that the album really swings and is a hard hitting performance that should encourage jazz enthusiasts to go "Uptown" again and again with amazement and delight.
