Bird Curtis Quintet

The critically acclaimed quintet is back with their second album! Finally available for the first time after it was recorded 50 years ago. ‘Needs B’ is a beautifully crafted set with one traditional and 9 original songs, filed under the classic British jazz sound blending modernism and bop with a strong focus on melody. With a top line-up of London musicians Ian Bird on tenor and alto-sax, John Curtis on trumpet, Ray Shea on piano, Daryl Runswick on bass and Tim Woolley on drums. Comes with new CD inside sleeve and new liner-notes by Daryl Runswick. \n \nhttps://soundcloud.com/jazzaggression/bird-curtis-quintet-needs-b?utm_source=clipboard&utm_campaign=wtshare&utm_medium=widget&utm_content=https%253A%252F%252Fsoundcloud.com%252Fjazzaggression%252Fbird-curtis-quintet-needs-b \n \n
