Joe Magnarelli - Decidedly So (2026) [Hi-Res]

Rock-solid work from Joe Magnarelli – a set that has the trumpeter blowing alongside trombonist Steve Davis – always a favorite of ours, and a player who matches Joe's energy while also deepening the tone of the set! The album's got a simple, no-nonsense quality – of the sort the Cellar Live label has been doing so well in recent years – really letting you focus on the special talents of a soloist – in ways that make the record a fantastic showcase for both musicians! The group also features great work on piano from Jeremy Mansia, plus bass from Clovis Nicholas and drums from Rodney Green – on titles that include "Jimmy's Blues", "10th Anniversary", "Good Health", "Decidedly So", and "DJ".
