Chris Ingham Quintet - Steely Jazz

The songs of Walter Becker and Donald Fagen, akaSteely Dan, stood alone in 1970s rock with cryptic, pungent lyrics and sophisticated music deeply influenced by the best jazz players of the 50s and 60s.

Steely Jazz re-examines the music of Steely Dan, illuminating their melodies and rich harmonies, and exploring the small jazz group possibilities of an incomparably opulent songbook.

Featuring well-known pieces like ' Rikki Dont Lose That Number' alongside classic tracks and deep cuts from the masterpiece albums, Steely Jazz is a fresh, exciting celebration of two giants of 20th century popular music.

Paul Higgs - trumpet & piano, Harry Greene - tenor sax & guitar, Chris Ingham - piano, guitar & vocals, Geoff Gascoyne - double bass, George Double - drums & vocal
