O’s Notes: Saxophonist Seamus Blake presents a tribute to the legendary Eddie Harris on EH! Blake also plays the EWI and adds effects with a band that includes Sam Yahel (keyboards), Tim Lefebvre (b), and Corey Fonville (d). They turn up the heat on “Listen Up”. Guest vocalist Dawn Pemberton shines on “Compared to What”, “EH Medley” around cooler jams like “Illusionary Dreams”. Producer Cory Weeds corals the team for a spicy set that has contemporary jazz elements from cities around the world.
