Product Information
"Lay Down My Heart", the third release from the prolific vibraphonist Joe Locke since his signing to Motéma Music in 2012, marks a complete and deliberate contrast from his two previous releases: the small-group outing "Signing", his critically lauded label debut with The Joe Locke Geoffrey Keezer Group, and the large-scale "Wish Upon A Star", which was recorded with Lincoln's Symphony Orchestra and was released in January of this year.
"Working on this recording brought me back to my earliest days of music-making in Rochester, New York, , where the music was part of the social fabric, and the audience and musicians were definitely involved in a two-way conversation. lt taught me that jazz is, and should always be, People Music."
On "Lay Down My Heart", the acclaimed vibraphonist, who had already played with Dizzy Gillespie, Pepper Adams and Mongo Santamaria before he was out of high school, has surrounded himself with a group of players that bring an incredible range of experience and talents to the mix. His longest-standing collaborator on "Lay Down My Heart" is bassist David Finck, who Locke has known since their days as fellow students in Rochester, New York. Also on board is pianist composer / Guggenheim Fellow and Motéma label-mate Ryan Cohan, who has collaborated with such musicians as Freddie Hubbard, Curtis Fuller, Paquito D'Rivera, Jon Faddis, Kurt Elling, and Ramsey Lewis. Rounding out the quartet is drummer Jaimeo (pronounced jah-mayo) Brown. Brown, whose own project, "Transcendence", will be released on Motdma later this year, began working with vibes player Bobby Hutcherson at the age of 19. He has gone on to hold the drum chair in the Charles Mingus Big Band, and also worked with Stevie Wonder, Carlos Santana, Wynton Marsalis and Pharoah Sanders.
For Locke, the music on Lay Down My Heart represents as much a journey through his past as it marks another move toward the future. Joining him on this soulful trip is as easy as putting the CD in your player and pressing "Play".
