Sunday Jazz Continues….checking out some funk / soul / jazz from trumpet player Jimmy Owens ..with a cut called Whats The Use? …This is off his self titled album from 1976….funky funky funky…check out the players and the track…
Kenny Barron on the piano, Chris White on the bass, Brian Brake on the drums, Warren Smith on percussion, George Davis, Lloyd Davis and Carl Lynch on guitars. And of course…Jimmy Owens on the trumpet….sounding Donald Byrd-ish…
Whats Really Going On? 
Talking about trumpets, I love the trumpet solo that suddenly peeps at the end of this reggae song, because it adds an unexpected and delightful jazz touch to it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4zOwPBykLOE.
