ROY HARGROVE
LISTENING PARTY
9-10pm / giveaways!
Despite his many forays into funk and neo-soul the trumpeter Roy Hargrove has kept his hard-bop bearings. There are a number of possible reasons to suspect him of a conservative streak, and “Earfood,” his new album, lays out a few for inspection.
The sound of the record, bright and crisp, attests to a classic jazz ideal. Then there’s the feel of a tightly bonded group that keeps its hierarchy clear. And in the liner notes Mr. Hargrove declares that he aims to please, with simple melodies and a product “steeped in tradition and sophistication.” He has a secondary title for the album, “Sound Nutrition,” indicating that this stuff is also supposed to be good for you.
