With Rotondi's absence, it became clear that One for All had reached its natural conclusion.\u003cbr\u003eOut of that realization, however, came the beginning of something new.\u003cbr\u003eTrombonist Steve Davis and his longtime collaborator David Hazeltine set out to form a new sextet--one that would honor the spirit of their shared history while opening the door to a slightly different sonic identity. The group embraced a broader palette, reflected not only in its instrumentation but also in its repertoire. The album pays tribute to some of the music's great voices, with nods to Cedar Walton, Bobby Hutcherson, and Curtis Fuller--figures whose influence continues to shape the language of modern jazz.\u003cbr\u003eThe origins of this musical partnership stretch back decades. The two co-leaders first crossed paths in the late 1980s at Art Blakey's apartment, where members of the Jazz Messengers had gathered for a commercial shoot. By the early 1990s, they were performing regularly together at a small Upper West Side club called Augie's, building the musical chemistry that would eventually lead to the formation of One for All.\u003cbr\u003eThere are no strangers in this new ensemble, Primary Influences. The group is built on decades of shared experience, bringing together musicians whose relationships extend far beyond the bandstand. Saxophonist Cory Weeds, vibraphonist Steve Nelson, bassist David Williams, and drummer Byron Landham each contribute from a connection that can only come from years of collaboration.\u003cbr\u003ePrimary Influences is both a tribute and a continuation--a reflection on where the music has been, and a statement of where it can still go.\u003c\/p\u003e    \u003ch2\u003eTrack Listing\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e        \u003cli\u003eContingencies \u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eHazer Blue\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003e In Your Own Sweet Way\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eHighway One\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003ePrimary Influences\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eWhen I Fell For You\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eMidnight Waltz\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eThe Court \u003c\/li\u003e          \u003c\/ul\u003e  \u003ch2\u003eAdditional Details\u003c\/h2\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLabel:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cellar live\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGenre:\u003c\/strong\u003e Jazz\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/strong\u003e English  \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRun Time:\u003c\/strong\u003e 48:17 mins\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRegion:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0       \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRelease Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e 11\/27\/26\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 628308831753\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"CELLAR","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50518060826873,"sku":"CM011326","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0815\/4889\/files\/CM011326.jpg?v=1790085693","url":"https:\/\/mvdshop.com\/products\/primary-influences-primary-influences-cd","provider":"MVD Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
