Experience the electrifying atmosphere of July 2023 at Vancouver's Frankie's Jazz Club, where Canadian jazz luminary Ryan Oliver, alongside a stellar ensemble of musicians, delivered two unforgettable nights. Curated by Oliver, renowned tenor saxophonist of the acclaimed Cookers Quintet, the performances embodied the essence of live jazz. Joined by Canadian jazz legends Brian Dickinson on piano, Neil Swainson on bass, and Terry Clarke on drums, Oliver led the quartet on a musical journey rooted in the vibrant landscape of 1960s jazz. Their powerhouse performances breathed new life into classics like "Wayfaring Stranger," transforming the American folk composition into a haunting rubato melody before erupting into a hard-swinging tour de force. An emotional highlight was "Peaceful Warrior," a reverent tone poem penned by Oliver as a tribute to saxophone legend Pharoah Sanders. Reflecting on his experiences in New York, Oliver aimed to capture Sanders's unforgettable saxophone sound and musical world. Accomplished jazz, blues, and gospel singer Dee Daniels added her soulful touch to the proceedings as a special guest, lending her vocals to three selections, including a poignant rendition of "Trying Times." "Live in Vancouver" captures the essence of these extraordinary performances, offering listeners a front-row seat to the magic of live jazz. Immerse yourself in the moment and experience the artistry, creativity, and excitement that define this captivating album.
