Mcclure, Ron

Some Kind Of Sing-songy Stuff

Some Kind Of Sing-Songy Stuff is something new. A dual-tenor summit a rare setting for McClure to lead here is pairing SteepleChase stalwart Rich Perry (a collaborator since SCCD 31329, 1992) with the younger Anthony Ferrara, whom McClure introduced to the label after recognizing his talent at NYU. With Mike Eckroth (piano), Steve Johns (drums), and McClure's bass anchoring the session, the album features seven reimagined earlier compositions and three new pieces, including the title track inspired by Joe Zawinul and Weather Report. The generational span (Ferrara in his 20s through McClure at 84) is a testament to jazz's living continuity. A swinging album from a master who keeps finding new things to say.
