DOC STEWART

Jazz Saxophone Artist, Physician, Surfer, Carpenter, Cannonball Adderley Historian and Collector

"Capturing the feeling that Cannonball Adderley left us through a storied career and an unmistakable alto saxophone technique steeped in the blues, Doc Stewart honors the memory with a fine quintet that’s based in Phoenix, Arizona. Two of Nat Adderley’s best-known compositions, “Jive Samba” and “Work Song,” alone, give the program its stand-out character. Stewart has borrowed the program’s lineup from Adderley’s next-to-last recording, “Phenix”. They’re memorable songs that are not meant to be re-created by just anybody.”
