Jazz Album with Cashman Near Top of Chart

A CD by the group in which a local musician plays is near the top of the Jazz Week chart.

Luther Hughes and The Cannonbal-Coltrane Project, which includes Colgate music professor Glenn Cashman on tenor saxaphone, has a CD in the number three spot on the chart. It's called Things Are Getting Better. (The video above of The Work Song includes a rippin' solo by Cashman.)

Check out samples from the entire CD.

Initially formed as an homage to the 1959 Cannonball Adderley-John Coltrane landmark album, The Cannonball Adderley Quintet in Chicago, the group continues to pay tribute to these jazz giants with arrangements and original compositions related to or inspired by Cannonball and/or Coltrane.
