FOURTH STREET FIVE JAZZ BAND
Rolling into town in Robert Young's Studebaker truck, here comes the Fourth Street Five with their second CD - "Hittin' On All Five." The band showcases a wide variety of tunes played in the classic jazz style with a few little twists in the road along the way. Together since 1990, the Fourth Street Five Jazz Band has developed a hard-driving sound that's distinctively their own. So Buckle up and enjoy the ride - Hittin' On All Five.
The tunes seem to fall naturally into groupings. The largest of these contains tunes from the phenomenon known as Tin-Pan Alley. Two pieces go far back into the misty beginnings of jazz. There are two "crossover" tunes to be found. And two pieces return to Northern California, written for and about the Bay Area.
