Review 1
One of the supreme trumpeters of the current generation, John Swana has developed his voice over the course of a string of previous Criss Cross releases.
Swana, varied and always bristling with creative energy, creates here, on Philly Gumbo, his seventh album as a leader for Criss Cross, something very special and a bit different, featuring a cast of Philadelphia jazz luminaries including legendary tenorist Bootsie Barnes and drummer Byron Landham with pianist Sid Simmons and bassist Mike Boone. |
