Saxophonist Kenny Shanker swings out onto the town
and unleashes a big sound on "Action City," his second
release for Posi-Tone. Joining Shanker on the date is his
regular rhythm section of pianist Mike Eckroth, bassist
Yoshi Waki, and drummer Brian Fishler. With an exciting
program of Shanker's original compositions, the session
travels steadily straight ahead and shines with bright
moments. Shanker's song writing and performance skills
have both noticeably moved up to another level, and this
hard-hitting set should certainly encourage jazz enthusiasts
to take a trip to visit "Action City" with amazement
and delight.
