O’s Notes: New York jazz bassist Alex Claffy leads a quartet with bassist, guitarist Kurt Rosenwinkle, pianist David Kikoski, Joel Frahm on sax, Benny Benack, III on trumpet, vocalist Veronica Swift and three drummers for his latest release,“What Are You Doing the Rest of Your Life?“It is an eight-song set that is popping with blues that will make you want to bob your head. They cook from end to end culminating with a rousing take on “Just One Of Those Things”. We are anxious for a follow-up.
