This Sunday Morning Jazz offering from The Joshua Redman Quartet sounds great. The only problem is it is much too short. I would love to hear a headliner length recording from this group. Joshua Redman's fantastic composition & arrangement skills probably came to him in his DNA. Joshua is the son of The Legendary Dewey Redman. Like his father Joshua plays a variety of instruments and has played as sideman to many Jazz band leaders including Pat Metheny, Chic Corea, Joe Lovano, & Brad Mehldau.

This is a rather large file set so I have uploaded CD1 & CD2 of the flac set individually

Our Sunday Morning Jazz offerings for this week start with a classic show from the Carlos Santana Wayne Shorter  collaboration. I know there will be some Jazz Purists who will think this isn't a real Jazz performance. I believe it's a great way to introduce people who wouldn't normally download a Jazz bootleg to the talents of The Legendary Wayne Shorter.

Formed in 2000 after the 4 members met at a High on Fire show in Atlanta Georgia. Mastodon is a Progressive Metal band that combines many of the eclectic underground metal styles to come up with a style that is uniquely their own. Mastodon choose to not draw attention to themselves during their performances, much like Tool or Pink Floyd, wanting the audience to focus on the music instead. In keeping with that spirit, during their 2010 tour the band projected films on a big screen to further enhance the effect.

Mastodon have been nominated for 2 Grammy Awards, in 2007 for the song "Colony Of Birchmen" for best metal performance, and 2012 for the song "Curl Of The Burl" for Best Hard Rock/Metal Performance.

For the best representation of a Mastodon show I recommend the bands official live DVD Live At The Aragon.
