Ronnie Foster – Reboot (LP Vinyl)
Product Details
Foster came up in the early '70s organ jazz scene that also produced George Benson, who tapped him as a collaborator, and his Hammond work carried traces of that hard bop and soul jazz lineage even as he pushed into funkier, more adventurous territory. A half-century gap between Blue Note chapters is nearly unheard of, and the fact that he returned with new original material rather than a nostalgia exercise says everything about where his head is at.
Vinyl LP pressing. 2022 release. With his first new album in 36 years, Reboot, Ronnie Foster returns to Blue Note Records 50 years after releasing his debut album, Two Headed Freap, on the label in 1972. Reboot is a collection of originals and covers that mark a fresh start for Foster who has whipped up an omnidirectional brew of Hammond Organ grooves that pay homage to the past but more often reflect Ronnie's restlessness for ushering in the new. The album is dedicated to the memory of his longtime friend Dr. Lonnie Smith.
