FITZGERALDS NIGHTCLUB PRESENTS:Jazz Album Tribute Vol. XV: Grant Greens IDLE MOMENTS ft. Neal Algers Blue Note Quartet$15 General Admission SEAT / Reserved Tables Available Neal Alger – guitarScott Burns – tenor saxJohn Tate – bassGeorge Fludas – drums Neal Algers Blue Note Quartet returns to Fitzgeralds for a modern reading of the classic jazz guitarist Grant Greens Blue Note Records releaseIdle Moments from 1963. Steve Huey of AllMusic states Idle Moments is the essential first Green purchase, and some of the finest guitar jazz of the hard bop era. Neal will be joined by his longtime comrades in the quartet: Scott Burns on tenor sax, John Tate on bass, and George Fludas on drums. The second set will feature a smattering of Blue Note classics and obscurities that jazz audiences will be sure to love. Lauded as one of the most sensitive and creative guitarists in a city filled with them (Howard Reich, Chicago Tribune) and described as monstrously talented by Christopher Loudon (Jazz Times magazine), Neal Algers musical versatility has allowed him to perform with Howard Levy (jazz), New Black Renaissance (R&B/Soul), Bossa Tres (Brazilian samba), and Blend Acoustic (classic rock/pop). Neal has toured Europe, Canada, Brazil, South Korea, Russia, and the U.S. with vocalist/pianist Patricia Barber and he is featured on her Blue Note Records releases Verse, Live: A Fortnight in France, Mythologies, The Cole Porter Mix, and Higher.
