O’s Notes: Tenor saxophonist Jeff Ellwood makes his debut as a leader with Alan Pasqua (p), Darek Oles ( b) and Joe LaBarbera (d). The program is a series of warm romantic ballads featuring Ellwood as on “For Roger” and the title track. Jeff shows lots of versatility on The Sounds Around The House swinging on “Old School Blues”, grooving on “King Henry” with guest Bob Sheppard (sax), and adding a touch of free improvisation on “Honeymoon”.
