ALBUM SERVES AS LABEL DEBUT

One For All - Incorrigible

Their band name suggests the Three Musketeers of 17th century Paris — inseparable friends who lived by the motto “one for all, all for one” — though it’s probably more accurate to think of these six kindred spirits as the Rat Pack of jazz. Given their longevity, they might also be considered the Rolling Stones of jazz. After more than 13 years together as a working sextet, the members of the cooperative group One For All have forged an uncanny chemistry and camaraderie both on and off the bandstand. That indelible tightness and like-minded pursuit of swing is readily apparent on Incorrigible, the group’s 15th release overall and debut for Jazz Legacy Productions.
