The Brass Company & Bill Lee - Colors (2025) [Hi-Res]

Known for his collaborations with Bob Dylan and Aretha Franklin, as well as being a first-call bassist for artists such as Duke Ellington, Billie Holiday, Harry Belafonte, Simon and Garfunkel, Arlo Guthrie, and Billy Strayhorn, among others, bassist and composer Bill Lee was an integral member of the Strata-East family. With The Brass Company’s Colors, Lee leads a large ensemble with true innovation through five tracks of exploration, with the title track serving as a suite in four parts: “Early In The Morning / Evening Shadows / No Promise of Tomorrow / Clear Skies, Bright Lights.” Remastered directly from the original analog tapes, this seminal work from one of jazz’s brightest stars will be available in digital format for the first time!
