Roswell Rudd Quartet To Appear Tonight At The Iridium Jazz Club

Iridium Jazz Club (1650 Broadway, NY NY 10023) presents the Roswell Rudd Quartet with Lafayette Harris, Brad Jones and Sunny Kim.

"Rudd's current quartet, featuring Korean vocalist Sunny Kim, probably represents the most accessible, swing-based music of his career. Some of their best originals, including "Whatever Turns You On" and "I'm Going Sane" penned by Rudd and producer Verna Gillis respectively, have a quirky vibe that brings to mind some of Mose Allison's greatest hits." http://jbspins.blogspot.com/

"he's a one-man chorus on this set of his vigorous songs from a deep 40-year songbook... Rudd placed the country's recent doleful doom-boom in perspective with such original music in uproarious, life- affirming performances ... To witness, even overhear, transcendent music such as this may well contribute to cures for what ails us, individually and collectively, short-term or bone-deep." Fred Bouchard http://www.allaboutjazz.com/php/article.php?id=31859

"Rudd still presents a striking figure with a shock of thick white hair on his head and a vandyck to go along with expressive eyes that further sell the passion obvious in his playing. After all these years, he still has a great sense of humor and his playing remains intriguing and of the moment... Their varied set was a fresh mix of jazz history, politics and world-influenced music." Ken Weiss
