Ralph Bowen - Keep the Change

On his third session for the label since his Criss Cross debut in 1992, tenor saxophonist Ralph Bowen takes a giant step forward with KEEP THE CHANGE, a bristling quintet date with trumpeter Ryan Kisor, pianist Orrin Evans, bassist Reuben Rogers and drummer Gregory Hutchinson. The mix of originals and a few well-chosen standards includes a new take on Bowen's signature tune, Elevation. This is a burning neobop date. Advertising to run in JAZZ REVIEW, and reviews are expected in all key jazz titles for this new release from a highly respected label
