On this edition of Jazz After Hours...
we reprise our special feature on the new record from the Verve Jazz Ensemble, All In. Leader and drummer Josh Feldstein and trumpeter and EP Tatum Greenblatt guide us through the tunes on the new record, telling the backstory of song selection, recording session and interplay between members of the septet. One of our best shows of 2023 so far...
