Steppin' Up
Eric Hargett is a rising star saxophonist who presents this new release as his debut album as a leader. This album was incredibly recorded in just one day’s time in Hargett’s hometown of Los Angeles. The album proves that Hargett is a master of all jazz genres, from bebop to funk and everything in between. “I had the good fortune of recording my first solo album with two incredible musicians. Gerry Gibbs is an accomplished drummer and prolific composer who has played with countless jazz music luminaries…I was fortunate to have found Joey DeFrancesco, a living legend on the [Hammond B3 organ]… Gerry, Joey, and I recorded the ten songs, including eight originals, in one afternoon without a single rehearsal. I give credit to Gerry and Joey, who utilized their musical sophistication and intuition to take the music to great places.” (Eric Hargett)
