But this impeccably swinging sextet, made up of some of the most in-demand players in modern jazz, is not just celebrating past achievements but charging forward into the future.

The Third Decade, due out June 3 via Smoke Sessions Records, brings together once again tenor saxophonist Eric Alexander, trumpeter Jim Rotondi, trombonist Steve Davis, pianist David Hazeltine, bassist John Webber, and drummer Joe Farnsworth. As always, the fiery and soulful musicianship is only matched by the warmth and spirit that results from a lifetime of musical friendships.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003ereleased June 3, 2016\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eJim Rotondi – trumpet \u0026amp; flugelhorn\u003cbr\u003e\nEric Alexander – tenor saxophone\u003cbr\u003e\nSteve Davis – trombone\u003cbr\u003e\nDavid Hazeltine – piano\u003cbr\u003e\nJohn Webber – bass\u003cbr\u003e\nJoe Farnsworth – drums\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eDavid Wakefield – French horn on “Ghost Ride”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eRecorded Live October 20, 2016 at Sear Sound, Studio C, New York City\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eProduced by Paul Stache\u003cbr\u003e\nAssociate Producer: Damon Smith\u003cbr\u003e\nRecorded and Mastered by Roman Klun\u003cbr\u003e\nStudio Assistant: Grant Valentine\u003cbr\u003e\nMixed by Roman Klun \u0026amp; Paul Stache\u003cbr\u003e\nMastered by Roman Klun\u003cbr\u003e\nLiner Notes by Neil Tesser\u003cbr\u003e\nPhotography by John Abbott\u003cbr\u003e\nDesign by Damon Smith \u0026amp; Paul Stache\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eFrench horn on “Ghost Ride” by David Wakefield\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eEric Alexander appears courtesy of High Note Records\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eExecutive Producers: Frank Christopher \u0026amp; Paul Stache\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Smoke Sessions Records","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56382106435966,"sku":"SSR-1605-CD","price":10.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0962\/4161\/5230\/files\/SSR-1605-CD.jpg?v=1760095235"},{"product_id":"one-for-all-big-george-cd","title":"One for All - Big George CD","description":"\u003cp\u003eAcclaimed hard-bop supergroup One for All makes its much-anticipated return to the studio with Big George, its first release in seven years and their 17th.

It features the unparalleled line-up of tenor saxophonist Eric Alexander, trumpeter Jim Rotondi, trombonist Steve Davis, pianist David Hazeltine, bassist John Webber, and drummer Joe Farnsworth. This time around the group has invited a very special guest for the proceedings – tenor sax legend George Coleman. This album will also be released as a limited edition 6-track vinyl edition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhile the title of BIG GEORGE is a nod to Coleman, the session is not a “tribute album” in the traditional sense. The tip of the hat is more an acknowledgment of the giants who still walk among us – a list that has grown distressingly (if inevitably) shorter over the sextet’s 27-year lifetime. Coleman is a living legend with an emphasis on the “living,” and his vital presence on three of the album’s nine tracks is less about paying homage than an opportunity to breathe fire alongside one of the greatest to ever do it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlexander explains, “I thought it was spectacular. His appearance makes it a little different from one of our typical dates. That is a component that hasn’t really been shown on our recordings thus far.”\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Smoke Sessions Records","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56382112137598,"sku":"SSR-2401-LP","price":25.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0962\/4161\/5230\/files\/One-for-All-BIG-GEORGE-Cover-3000px-scaled.jpg?v=1760095338"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0962\/4161\/5230\/collections\/One-for-All-BIG-GEORGE-Cover-3000px-scaled.jpg?v=1773859215","url":"https:\/\/8merch.shop\/collections\/one-for-all.oembed","provider":"8Merch Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
