Dan Moretti & the Hammond Boys cd Release at The Sahara Jazz Club

About

Celebrating the new CD release ...New England-based tenor player Dan Moretti thrives at the intersection of jazz, blues and soul. Moretti teamed with B-3 player Dave Limina, bassist Jesse Williams and drummer Lorne Entress and Kevin Belz on this project, a tip of the hat to soul-jazz masters from the 1960s, including Kenny Burrell, Jimmy Smith and Stanley Turrentine. Favorites: their takes on Bobby Timmons’ classic “Moanin’,” Gene Ammons’ “Shuffle Twist,” Reuben Wilson’s “Ronnie’s Bonnies” and Turrentine’s Soul Shoutin.” Moretti shifts from sax to flute for a bluesy take on Roland Kirk’s “Soul Underneath.”
