Nick Hempton • Slick

 



Following on from the success of 2019’s, veteran NYC saxophonist Nick Hempton is back with his latest offering, “Slick.” A dynamic collection of hard swinging post-bop, recorded direct-to-tape for that classic organ band sound, “Slick” is heavy on the blues, and dripping with 60’s Hammond B3 grease. With six brand new Hempton originals, and featuring guitar legend Peter Bernstein along with the dream rhythm team of Kyle Koehler on organ and Fukushi Tainaka on drums, “Slick” is born of the classic Blue Note records of Stanley Turrentine, Lou Donaldson, and Jimmy Smith. Sit back, pour a drink, take a listen, and you’ll agree: this is SLICK!

Tras el éxito de «Night Owl» de 2019, el veterano saxofonista de NYC Nick Hempton está de vuelta con su última oferta, «Slick». Una colección dinámica de post-bop de swing duro, grabada directamente en cinta para ese sonido clásico de banda de órgano, «Slick» es pesado en el blues, y goteando con la grasa de Hammond B3 de los años 60. Con seis nuevos temas originales de Hempton, y con la participación de la leyenda de la guitarra Peter Bernstein junto con el equipo rítmico de ensueño de Kyle Koehler al órgano y Fukushi Tainaka a la batería, «Slick» nace de los discos clásicos de Blue Note de Stanley Turrentine, Lou Donaldson y Jimmy Smith. Siéntate, sírvete una copa, escúchalo y estarás de acuerdo: ¡esto es SLICK!
