Out of the Blue - OTB (1986)

Image and video hosting by TinyPic

Kenny Garrett, Renee Rosnes, Harry Pickens, and Billy Drummond, among others were once part of Out Of The Blue, a group that was devised as a vehicle to feature some of Blue Note's top young jazz talents back in 1984. Their repertoire emphasized hard bop-oriented originals that extended the Blue Note legacy of the 1960s.
Other musicians who were once part of OOTB were bassist Kenny Davis, altoist Steve Wilson, trumpeter Michael Philip Mossman, tenor man Ralph Bowen, bassist Robert Hurst, drummer Ralph Peterson. The group recorded four albums from 1985-1989 and went on several well-received tours before eventually breaking up when its members developed their own solo careers.
