O’s Notes: Veteran drummer Steve Gadd has been an anchor on the contemporary jazz set for decades playing with The Crusaders, Manhattan Transfer, Return To Forever and Steely Dan to name a few. He gathers a team of first call musicians including Larry Goldings (keyboards), Walt Fowler (t), Jimmy Johnson (b) and Michael Landau (g). Together they perform on Gadditude a collection of old and new compositions. They span the contemporary jazz spectrum including a taste of blues. It is all executed with excellence as expected with this crew.
