Kid Thomas And His Creole Jazz Band - Sonnets From Algiers
Review by Shah Shahid
Sonnets From Algiers by Kid Thomas And His Creole Jazz Band is an album that showcases the best of traditional jazz music. The album features a collection of melodious tracks that transport the listener to the vibrant jazz scene of New Orleans.
The album opens with the upbeat track "Algiers Strut," which sets the tone for the rest of the album. The band's tight instrumentation and Kid Thomas' soulful trumpet playing create a lively and energetic atmosphere.
The album also features slower, more introspective tracks such as "Someday You'll Be Sorry" and "St. James Infirmary Blues." Kid Thomas' emotive playing and the band's understated accompaniment create a powerful and moving experience.
Throughout the album, the band's musicianship is on full display. The solos are well-crafted and showcase the individual talents of each member of the band. The rhythm section provides a solid foundation for the rest of the band to build upon.
