A Christian McBride Situation/France 2019

Christian McBride is considered one of the best current jazz bassists. In fact, he is famous as a James Brown fanatic, and the strongest groovy live performance performed by his own band, which has a strong lineup of songs and jazz standards regardless of genre or style, is here! ! Nice Jazz in France, just held on July 16, 2019, by the latest Christian McBride Situation, with the addition of Patrice Rushen, one of the best jazz/fusion and soul/R&B keyboard players who has recently visited Japan.・A must-listen edition is now available, which includes a complete recording of the extremely lively performance at the festival, including the 1.5 hour long encore, on a super high-quality stereo soundboard that has been carefully mastered by the label! ! ! From the opening, it suddenly started with a JAM that lasted over 20 minutes. A groovy mix of swing, funk, and hip-hop that inherits the tradition of condensing everything about Christian, and the groove that draws the listener in is truly Christian. After that, he performed a cool arrangement of jazz standards such as “A Night in Tunisia,” and for the encore, James Brown, the father of funk and the president of funk, who is well known in the world, played at full throttle. A bold cover of James’ famous song “Sex Machine”. Christian uses both wood and electric instruments throughout the song to let you listen to his play in full blackness. Bass fans should not miss this! Of course, Christian’s right-hand man Ron’s heavy tenor, Allison’s lustrous and soulful vocals mixed with scatting, and Logic and Sundance’s exquisite beats, breaks, and electronics create a rhythm that is truly human, as expected. One word! And Patrice’s keyboard and acoustic piano, which are featured louder than any of the members, are absolutely the best. The songs of Patrice, a talented woman who is highly respected in the R&B, dance, and hip-hop scenes, have been sampled by many artists including Logic, but here she will blow things up with the best electric piano, or play a spiritual acoustic piano. It generously shows off everything about Patrice. He’s a legend who connects jazz and hip hop just like the master Herbie, and he’s the best! Christian recently came to Japan with the Chick Corea Trilogy Trio and showed us the essence of what is currently considered the best jazz piano trio. This time, his own group with amazing faces, a true groovy machine, will go wild with A Christian McBride Situation!
