O’s Notes: Hasselbach plays a very sweet melodic trumpet. He also plays flugelhorn, flute, trombone and evi. The music, a combination of classics with a couple of originals really swings. “Angel Eyes” shows Gabriel’s romantic side. Miles Black tickles the ivories, standing out on “Blue Miles”. Craig Scott plays drums with Miles Foxx Hill on bass. Guest vocalist Michael Bublé rounds out the session on a nice arrangement of “I’ve Got You Under My Skin”. The variety of approaches and strong arrangements make an inviting set that you’ll want to listen to repeatedly.
