Deep Focus – #7 Memphis Blues Jazz | Midnight Birds Jazz Band

Описание: In 1950s Memphis, electricity hums between brick walls and river air. Beale Street, Union Avenue, Court Square, and the slow curve of the Mississippi shape a sound built on shuffle steps and glowing amplifiers. This session moves through studios, sidewalks, and late-night corners where blues learned to speak louder, carrying melody with weight and patience. Jazz listens closely here, answering with space, swing, and focus, turning the city’s streets into a steady, working rhythm that flows without interruption.

SESSION #7 MEMPHIS Blues Jazz

The streets of Memphis in the 1950s vibrated with a new energy. Beale Street still breathes the blues, while recording studios preserve within their walls the sound that changed music history. In this session, we explore Memphis through its avenues, parks, and venues where the blues became urban, amplified, and timeless.

A focus-oriented Electric Blues Jazz session built on a solid, steady shuffle groove. Jazz embraces the pulse of Memphis blues, keeping melodies clear and solos virtuosic yet controlled. Niro on electric guitar, Kokocho on walking double bass, Blitz holding the shuffle, Aura on tenor sax and harmonica, and The Professor on percussive piano create a stable, deep, and concentrated foundation.
