Rich toned baritone sax jazz Carol Sudhalter Quartet – Live At Saint Peter’s Church

Rich toned baritone sax jazz Carol Sudhalter Quartet – LIVE AT SAINT PETER’S CHURCH:  What an absolutely pleasant surprise this lively (& LIVE) album from Carol is… her baritone sax is rich toned and full of movement (at all times)… though I couldn’t find any live performances from this album, you’ll still find plenty of action if you SUBSCRIBE to Carol’s YouTube channel.  In addition to Carol’s excellent baritone sax, flute and vocal work, you’ll also hear Patrick Poladian on piano, Kevin Hailey doing upright bass and Mike Campenni on Drums… their performance on tunes like the absolutely mellow “Time Remembered” is simply stunning… Carol’s flute work on this piece certainly puts her in the realm of legendary!  (Unfortunately, I couldn’t find any samples, but as soon as I’m told where they are, I will come back and add them in).

The jumpin’ blues on “Funk in Deep Freeze” features Carol’s beautiful baritone playing, and I can (easily) see this tune getting major rotations on jazz stations around the globe… since I’m a piano player, too, I can tell you that Patrick’s keyboard work on this amazing jazz experience will make jazz pianists envious!  This 5:11 jazz gem just ROLLS with great energy, folks!

It was (unquestionably) Patrick’s original swinger “Fun in the Alley” that got my vote for personal favorite of the nine superb songs offered up for your aural adventures on this album… just PULSES with LIFE!

I give Carol and her highly talented players a MOST HIGHLY RECOMMENDED, with an “EQ” (energy quotient) rating of 4.98 for this wonderful release.  Get more information on the Carol Sudhalter website.         Rotcod Zzaj
