Kenny Burrell: BE YOURSELF

[Joe]

79 years young, Kenny has a new release on Highnote Records.

with Benny Green, Peter Washington and 2 young musicians with whom I'm not familiar: Tivon Pennicott on reeds and Clayton Cameron on drums.

Anyone heard this yet?

I want to hear this on Rhapsody but they don't have it yet. I find it amusing and cool his name is in the exact same font as "Introducing Kenny Burrell". The photo has a similarly focused look to that cover too.

Clayton Cameron was the drummer for the Ralph Sharon Trio for awhile, when they were backing Tony Bennett in the 90's. Got to see him with Bennett in '96. Helluva show, helluva drummer. Did a fantastic drum solo using nothing but brushes on a snare.

Yes, that is his specialty. I remember using material from his instructional videos for a while during my ultimately failed attempt to play drums. I would not call him young. Must be at least 45 years old (anyone know?).

I've never heard of the reeds player, though.
