Dave Stryker Quintet • Passage

 



Dave Stryker (3/30/57) grew up in Omaha, Nebraska and moved to New York City in 1980. After establishing himself in the local music scene, he joined organist Jack McDuff's group for two years 1984-85. When McDuff wasn't on the road (literally traveling by van all over the country) they worked a steady four-night a week gig at Dude's Lounge in Harlem. His first break, this turned out to be an invaluable experience, paying his dues night after night with the soulful jazz organist.

It was at Dude's Lounge that Stryker met tenor saxophonist Stanley Turrentine, who would occasionally sit in. After leaving McDuff, Turrentine asked Stryker to join his quintet. From 1986-1995 he played with the legendary saxophonist at all the major festivals, concert halls, and clubs throughout the world. He is featured on two Turrentine CD's (Stanley recorded Stryker's tune "Sidesteppin"). With Turrentine, Stryker was able to play with such jazz greats as Dizzy Gillespie and Freddie Hubbard. The ten years playing alongside the tenor legend helped Stryker realize the importance of having his own sound .
Passage - 1991 - was A working quintet with Steve Slagle, Joey Calderazzo, Jay Anderson and Adam Nussbaum.

Dave Stryker (30/3/57) creció en Omaha, Nebraska y se mudó a la ciudad de Nueva York en 1980. Después de establecerse en la escena musical local, se unió al grupo del organista Jack McDuff durante dos años, 1984-85. Cuando McDuff no estaba de gira (literalmente viajando en camioneta por todo el país) trabajaban cuatro noches a la semana en el Salón Dude en Harlem. Su primer descanso resultó ser una experiencia invaluable, pagando sus deudas noche tras noche con el organista de jazz conmovedor.

Fue en el salón de Dude donde Stryker conoció al saxofonista tenor Stanley Turrentine,quien ocasionalmente se sentaba. Después de dejar McDuff, Turrentine le pidió a Stryker que se uniera a su quinteto. De 1986 a 1995 tocó con el legendario saxofonista en los principales festivales, salas de conciertos y clubes de todo el mundo. Aparece en dos CD de Turrentine (Stanley grabó la melodía de Stryker "Sidesteppin"). Con Turrentine, Stryker pudo tocar con grandes del jazz como Dizzy Gillespie y Freddie Hubbard. Los diez años tocando junto a la leyenda del tenor ayudaron a Stryker a darse cuenta de la importancia de tener su propio sonido .
Passage - 1991-fue un quinteto de trabajo con Steve Slagle, Joey Calderazzo, Jay Anderson y Adam Nussbaum.
