It's been a tough time for all of us, so let's not worry about sending messages for a minute. Here we are, playing some songs and having some fun.\" Having fun the band may be but along the way they make some compelling jazz weaving a beguiling tapestry of kaleidoscopic colours with Pelt's sultry and communicative trumpet to the fore surrounded by Chien Chien Lu's hypnotic vibraphone and pianist Victor Gould's subtle splashes of the Fender Rhodes. The inclusion of Brittany Anjou on Moog synthesizer and the rarely- heard Mellotron may imply a real electronica aspect present on the recording but, quite to the contrary, Pelt uses them sparingly and incorporates them brilliantly into the group's tonal palette. Their appearance does occasionally bring a certain 70s independent jazz vibe to the proceedings but they far from define the sound of the group.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAnne Drummond's silvery flute on two tracks adds yet another dimension to the already wide spectrum of colours on this latest album in the discography of the sometimes surprising but always inspired Jeremy Pelt.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eJeremy Pelt: trumpet\u003cbr\u003eChien Chien Lu: vibraphone\u003cbr\u003eVictor Gould: piano \u0026amp; Fender Rhodes\u003cbr\u003eVicente Archer: acoustic \u0026amp; electric bass\u003cbr\u003eAllan Mednard: drums\u003cbr\u003eAnne Drummond: flute (tracks 4 \u0026amp; 5)\u003cbr\u003eBrittany Anjou: Mellotron (track 5), Moog Sub 37 (track 7)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTracks: Picking Up the Pieces \/ Soundtrack \/ Be the Light \/ Part 1: The Lighter Side \/ Part 2: The Darker Side \/ Elegy \/ I'm Still Standing \/ I Love Music \/ Shifting Images \/ You and Me\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"HIGHNOTE RECORDS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41467491516572,"sku":"HCD7346","price":10.8,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0130\/8714\/6043\/products\/1_b39e347b-2843-456f-a51a-1c29e780370f.jpg?v=1645546131","url":"https:\/\/www.horizonsmusic.co.uk\/products\/jeremy-pelt-soundtrack","provider":"Horizons Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
