ECHOES OF SWING — Blue Pepper (2013) Serie : Good Time Jazz | FLAC (tracks), lossless

Mit „Good Time Jazz“ besinnt sich ACT auf die All American Music der 1920/30er Jahre. Nicht aus Nostalgie, sondern um die (oft vergessenen) Roots in Erinnerung zu rufen. Denn wer die Vergangenheit nicht kennt, kann die Gegenwart nicht verstehen und die Zukunft nicht gestalten. Das Gute von gestern im neuen Gewand. Nicht nachgespielt, sondern innovativ interpretiert. Jazz der das Herz anspricht, bei dem die Finger schnippen und die Füße wippen. Mit Freude am Spiel. Unterhaltung im besten Sinne. ACT
