O’s Notes: Canadian trumpeter Al Muirhead has a New Orleans swagger in his groove. It’s About Time is his recording debut and a celebration of his heroes and influences. But Al is no rookie musician and this is readily apparent! He’s a renowned first-call artist and also contributes two originals to the set. The program is bountiful with classics like “All Blues”, “A Night In Tunisia”, “Stardust” and the warm finale “The Girl Next Door”.
