Joe Locke's Four Walls of Freedom
Thursday, November 30, 2006
Lead by amazing vibraphonist Joe Locke the genesis of this awesome band was marked by the sad and untimely demise of the wonderful honking heart and soul of tenorist Bob Berg.
The phenomenal improvisational skills of self-taught Californian vibes man Joe Locke leading the powerful talents of drummer Gary Novak and bassist Ed Howard, plus the high octane intellectual playing of Tommy Smith filling the void left by Berg. Exploring the ‘four walls’ of music, melody, rhythm, harmony and form, this band delivers deft modern jazz with a burning curiosity at its source.
