O’s Notes: Bassist Dave Young and trombonist Terry Promane combine forces to form a powerful octet. Both artists are well-decorated leaders in their own rights as well as supporters of well-regarded jazz legends. But as leaders of the Octet including tenor saxophonist Mike Murley, they show us the passionate heat that Canadians can generate playing fresh arrangements of nine classic tunes along with “Can’t You See” by Murley. They swing, mesmerize and groove with “Detour Ahead”, “Can’t You See” and “Jeannine” are just a few of the winners on a moving set.
