James Taylor Quartet presented by Ronnie Scott's(18+) at | 4th December
Famed for their upbeat, energetic live shows, British jazz-funk stalwarts, and hugely influential jazz/pop cross over stars, the James Taylor Quartet. Following their stonking Sold Out residency here, Taylor’s driving Hammond organ has been leading the group for over twenty years, and the band show no signs of slowing down. Their relentlessly entertaining tunes take their inspiration from boogaloo funk of the sixties and the rare-groove style funk of the seventies.
“James Taylor is the best Hammond player this side of the Atlantic” – Craig Charles BBC6 FUNK AND SOUL SHOW.
“James Taylor, one of the all-time great Hammond players” – Nicky Wire from the Manic Street Preachers, NME.
“Never less than an impressive demonstration of virtuosity” – Andrew Mueller, Uncut.
“James Taylor keeps it swinging, fun and unpretentious” – Andy Robson, Jazzwise.
“Taylor’s organ sound first sears the ears and then goes straight to the feet” – Garry Booth, BBC Music Magazine.
“Taylor is one of our finest jazz organists… A musician who has forged his own path… His playing is snappy and crisp…” – David Lands, Jazz Journal.
James Taylor, one of the great British instrumentalists of his generation, has taken his trademark howling Hammond sound to the masses for over 25 years; still famed for its upbeat, energetic live shows… with no sign of slowing down. The band’s relentlessly entertaining tunes take inspiration from the rare-groove style funk, and boogaloo funk of the 60s and 70s and, the band is, without a doubt, one of the most important jazz-pop crossover outfits in British live musical history today.
