Something Colorful

"Royal Crown Revue drummer Daniel Glass demonstrates he has the chops to be the real deal in jazz circles as a composer, player and bandleader." Variety (full review)

 

"Over the past month, I have played Very Tall's debut recording, the Daniel Glass Trio's [Something Colorful], more than any other record that has come into my house in that time (and [lots] of records come into my house). It possesses a light-footed, light-hearted, fresh energy that is infectious. None of these three guys is famous yet, but they are highly accomplished and they swing their butts off."
Stereophile Magazine (full review)

 

"On his leader debut, Glass's trio creates sophisticated west coast swing . . . crafting a detailed panorama full of fire, finesse and articulation. Sweet swing from a post rat pack artisan." Modern Drummer Magazine (full review)

"Something Colorful is a wonderful recording and a welcome addition to any audiophile jazz-lover's library. The interplay between these three musicians is remarkable! The trio . . . opens up aural vistas rarely heard by jazz lovers. Glass demonstrates a gift for finding, and exploiting, the best his fellow musicians have to offer, while still holding fast the reins of leadership."SoundStage.com (full review)

 

"This new trio should have no trouble attracting a following. The unusual format of vibes, bass and drums is a pleasure to hear since each player stretches both individually and collectively without boring their listeners with overly long improvisations." All Music Guide (full review)

 

"This setting brings out the best in each of the musicians.The interplay between the players . . . is consistently impressive and the sound of the group is quite attractive.This is a CD well worth checking out!" LA Jazz Scene (full review)

 

"Whenever I think of Daniel Glass, I think of the very talented and exciting drummer for the founding fathers of the neo-swing movement. What also comes to mind is a person who is a very scholarly author, drum historian and educator. New thoughts about Daniel Glass must now include dynamic and bold session leader, composer and entrepreneur with the release of his debut CD." Jazz Connection Magazine (full review)
