Bobby Broom - Modern Man

Cool session! There’s been some comparisons to George Benson’s onetime lineup with Cuber and Dr. Smith on a few cds. But the comparison ends there. This is one ‘Hot’ cd, in the cool sense. Bobby Broom has style and chops all his own. This is one serious guitarist who can rank and outrank most when it comes to true jazz guitar.

He swings, improvises, and flat out smokes with ease and sophistication. His supporting cast is equally impressive. Cuber’s sound is classic. Idris is tight and free on the drums, and Dr. Smith as always is one killer organists. Younger organists take heed and learn. A very good work of modern jazz. —Mark Turner
