About The Album

PLAYING ALTO SAXOPHONE that Cannonball, Stitt and Woods would love, not to mention Bird, Vincent Herring shows again on his new record The Uptown Shuffle why he belongs in their company. Like his heroes, he doesn’t rely on gimmicks or tricks, he just flat out swings. It’s a timeless approach that is paired perfectly with the incomparable comper Cyrus Chestnut who contributes several powerful solos of his own. This entertaining record includes classics like, “Love Walked In,” “Tenderly,” and “Strike Up the Band” and originals like Herring’s “Elation,” and Chestnut’s “Uptown Shuffle.” Herring has himself a thrilling straight-ahead record propelled in no small part by Brandi Disterheft and Joe Farnsworth. The Uptown Shuffleis available for purchase as a 8-panel CD-Deluxe Album complete with liner notes, interview and additional photos or as a high resolution download mastered for iTunes.
