Criss Cross Jazz 1246 CD
Joe Magnarelli - John Swana
New York-Philly Junction
Available: February 15, 2004
Unsung trumpet heroes Joe Magnarelli and
John Swana, each a Criss Cross veteran,
battled to a draw on the stirring 1998 opus
PHILLY-NEW YORK JUNCTION,
an album so good that Gerry Teekens couldn't resist bringing them back for
a 2003 rematch.
Supported by the same formidable cast of characters
(Eric Alexander, tenor sax;
Joel Weiskopf, piano;
Peter Washington, bass,
and Kenny Washington, drums),
Magnarelli (right channel) and Swana (left channel) exchange ideas with
brotherly competitiveness and deep swing -- there isn't a dull moment.
