Lin Rountree | Groovetree
Lin Rountree | Groovetree
By Terrill Hanna
Released in 2005, I brought back this gem to fully illustrate the need for more trumpet play in the contemporary/urban jazz game. Ladies & Gents, Lin Rountree doesn’t mess around. And I thoroughly enjoyed the compositions, which quenched the thirst for more urban style trumpet music. Contributions from Tim Bowman & vocalist Leslie Nelson sealed the deal. Furthermore, Lin’s music is just delightful & energetic. Strictly appealing to an overall grooveline, funker’s delight!
