  Marc Adler – Jazz Flutist – Improvisation and Composition
Picture

My Kind of Blues - The Lee Smith Ensemble
​

Lee does it again on his second release!

My Kind of Blues Vectordisc  Records.

A brilliant compilation of arrangements and improvisations - 

Four of the album’s eight tracks are original compositions by this legendary jazz bassist. The other tracks feature arrangements of jazz classics. Each composition highlights what has become Lee’s signature sound of flute, saxophone and trumpet out front of a burning rhythm section!  His unique voicings for this wind trio coupled with his harmonic and rhythmic sophistication result in a very satisfying listening experience.

Joining him on the album are:

Anthony Wonsey – Piano

Justin Faulkner –  Drums (1,2,4,7)

Byron Landham - Drums (3,5,6,8)

Doc Gibbs - Percussion (3,5,6)

Tim Warfield – Tenor & Soprano Saxophones

Joe Magnarelli –  Trumpet & Flugelhorn

Marc Adler – Flute and Alto Flute

Selections: Afro Blue; High Step; Didn’t I; When Sonny Gets Blue; Latinesque; Alone Together; Brighter Days; My Kind of Blues.
