The Eddie Roberts Quintet - Trenta

Eddie Roberts 8th album as leader features the acclaimed Roughneck line up and further explores his jazz influences with references to Grant Green, Ramsey Lewis, Gabor Szabo and swinging 60 soundtracks in the grooves of this latest recording session.
The New Mastersounds guitar ace has written some tough, some tender but always swinging arrangements of Italian tunes from the 60s and 70s with warm analogue production in his trademark Roughneck style.

For me, Eddie Roberts is one of the great unsung heroes of the UK Jazz scene. This man is one of the finest musicians we have and he should be world famous by now. Whether fronting his Roughneck live project, The New Mastersounds, or his own Quintet, Eddie oozes pure class! Russ Dewbury (Juice 107FM)
