CD Reviews – January 2013
by George Fendel

Hudson City Suite; Scott Healy, piano, leader, composer.
A long-time contributor to the Conan O’Brien television show, Healy shows his “

other side” in a suite of original music which makes for both intriguing and compelling listening. With a 10-piece “small big band” of two trumpets, two trombones, three saxes and rhythm section, Los Angeles-based Healy gives us a beautifully constructed menu of nine originals that showcase the vitality and chops of some hand-picked LA musicians With Ellington as his model, Healy has created a stirring, concert-like set. Highly recommended!
