Jacob Fred Jazz Odyssey Stay Gold 2LP (Vinyl)

Jacob Fred Jazz Odyssey, the Tulsa, Oklahoma institution founded by pianist Brian Haas, returns with a full length album, Stay Gold. The effort further refines JFJO's singular vision that's been dubbed "Red Dirt Jazz", sounding equal parts earthy and nimble, pastoral and sweeping, elegant and free. The quartet taps into their birthright, drawing upon "The Tulsa Sound" born of hometown heroes like JJ Cale, Bob Wills and Leon Russell, while growing these roots from a jazz foundation that's built firmly upon the influence of giants such as Duke Ellington and Thelonios Monk. JFJO recorded the album at acclaimed engineer/musician David Teegarden's Natura Digital Recording Studios just outside of Tulsa. The eight-track effort captures the band's strongest songwriting and most compelling improvisations to date. The second release from the current incarnation of the quartet, Stay Gold proves undoubtedly that pianist Haas has found the perfect foil in lap steel guitarist Chris Combs. Jacob Fred Jazz Odyssey continue to evolve into one of the 21st century's most distinct jazz voices.

The double LP contains the single "The Sensation of Seeing Light" which was released on 7" vinyl as a Record Store Day exclusive.
