Eric Alexander Quartet plays Cheesecake - Linda's Jazz Nights

[@mikefarmer7238]

Great version of Cheesecake .Eric just plays so well on this he should get a medal. Top rate backing trio too.

Love anything this man does

[@garyderish8766]

Brilliant as always. Love Eric’s playing. Listening to him, I am always amazed at his control, lyricism and soulfulness.

[@kryptonitetime]

love that pentatonic lick at 4:22. so simple but so swingin

[@bedlam6666]

If I closed my eyes and didn't know any better I would think Dexter had returned. Talk about nailing the era. Love the band, and loved the minimalist drum solo. Thanks for the post.

[@kpoudavoff]

bedlam6666 not even close to great incomparable Dexter .

[@nathanwyatt7748]

@@kpoudavoff I agree with you on that one! Dexter was amazing!

[@nathanwyatt7748]

Great job by Eric Alexander by the way!

[@Jazzyk-zt7pe]

Look forward to seeing Eric at this years litchfield jazz festival where I'll be volunteering for the first time. I last attended this festival 13 years ago when Ray Charles was there. I'm glad i had the opportunity to say Ray before he passed away.

Oh go on then, as nobody seems to want to comment on this one ! I'm really getting in to this guy, and nice to hear him digging in to Dexter's classic. Great blowing and a great band. Thanks for posting. Go Eric !

[@williamrickgraham7593]

Makes me strive to continue learning listening to this brilliance!

[@Listen4u2b]

The Eric Alexander standard is a true connection to the Trane, Mobley, Stitt, Parker, Getz, Griffin, Gordon, Rollins tradition... I am a listener in AWWWW

[@azerisakzo]

wow! that phrases are so sweet, each chorus he is trying to play in a different manner, sometimes taking coltrane`s m6 phrases killing me :) Thanks Eric! I wish I could play like you!

[@digsjazzalot]

Sounding better than ever EA. I'll never forget the week of combo instruction at abersold 10 years ago now. Lovely cat all the way around.

[@juznie2339]

Great Stuff

[@mathman228]

In my four decades of listening to Jazz i have never heard a 'White guy' blow like Eric. Just haven't heard it.

[@ericalexanderjazz]

EDDIE MATHENEY Well, you know, I DO TAKE THAT TO HEART AND AS A COMPLIMENT, even though some people would have a different reaction. I know where I came from and where my heart lies-----so Thank You! Ea

[@mathman228]

Eric, yes it is a COMPLIMENT, although i worded it in poor taste. You are one of the finest saxophonist period. How's that?

[@haroldfrank83]

+EDDIE MATHENEY I agree with you, Eric's sound and playing are exceptional, but I would include Grant Stewart as well

[@gilouseb]

Once in Paris, I came to see Al Foster. But I mostly heard Eric Alexander. I didn't know him, but he blew me . An excellent evening.

[@gerardchumilla7343]
