Gettin' To It
Symbolic image – for the detailed description and condition, please read the Item Details below.
Christian McBride is one of contemporary jazz's most accomplished and versatile bass players, known for his warm tone and harmonic sophistication. Gettin' To It from 1995 on Verve Records showcases him in a post-bop context, leading a group through music that acknowledges hard bop and straight-ahead jazz while expanding the vocabulary slightly. McBride's bass work is rock-solid and singing—he's not just laying down a foundation but actively composing with harmony and melody. The album has the production quality you'd expect from Verve, with clear recording and excellent musicianship across the board. McBride's touch is mature and confident, and he's surrounded by strong players. For listeners who appreciate contemporary jazz that doesn't abandon swing and soul while exploring new harmonic territory, this is essential. McBride's bass playing alone makes this worth hearing.
