SOUNDTRACK - JEREMY PELT (CD)

Jazz trumpeter  composer and author Jeremy Pelt has certainly never shied away from themed
albums so one might expect something cinematic from the enigmatically-titled Soundtrack.
However  as Pelt himself explains  Ive certainly done plenty of concept albums  but in this
case theres nothing Im on a soapbox about. Its been a tough time for all of us  so lets 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 colors with Pelts sultry and communicative trumpet to the fore
surrounded by Chien Chien Lus hypnotic vibraphone and pianist Victor Goulds 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 groups 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. Anne Drummonds silvery flute on
two tracks adds yet another dimension to the already wide spectrum of colors on this latest
album in the discography of the sometimes surprising but always inspired Jeremy Pelt
