The Sea Breeze Jazz label has been instrumental in giving exposure to recordings by jazz musicians who might otherwise not achieve wide distribution. The Full Spectrum Jazz Big Band has strong soloists. They perform a mix of standards, well-known jazz compositions, and some promising originals. Among the outstanding tracks are the feature for three tenor trombones in Dave Brubeck's "It's a Raggy Waltz" (with some hilarious solos that would have its composer laughing out loud) and the brisk fusion vehicle "This Is Not Here." One caveat: the occasional vocals by Duane Lawrence are an acquired taste; like many male singers who toured with Duke Ellington, Lawrence tends to overdo it. ~ Ken Dryde...
