Fred Anderson

In Continuing on the “masters of Chicago jazz vein”, one cannot ignore Mr. Fred Anderson. Long time improvisational saxophone player/bar owner, Fred Anderson has directly nurtured and taught what seems like generations of musicians that have dedicated their time to out there jazz. And as one of the founding members of the Association For The Advancement Of Creative Musicians, he paved the way for so many others.

Although he’s played with a who’s who of the jazz world, this trio with a rhythm section consisting of Hamid Drake (drum/percussion) and Harrison Bankhead (bass/cello) is one of my absolute favorites. The musicians have an incredible musical interplay that absolutely blows my mind. And really, when you have three musicians as great as these three, there’s no way you can go wrong.
