Jerry Vivino: Walkin' With The Wazmo

Read "Walkin' With The Wazmo" reviewed by Michael P. Gladstone


Multi-reed player Jerry Vivino should be a familiar face to many due to his long-term membership in the Max Weinberg 7, the band that provides the music for Late Night with Conan O'Brien five days a week on NBC.

Jerry Vivino Quartet with Lew Soloff: Live at Shanghai Jazz

Read "Live at Shanghai Jazz" reviewed by C. Michael Bailey

The multi-instrumentalist has played with the pop likes of Bruce Springsteen, Mark Anthony, Ricky Martin, the Max Weinberg 7, and Bette Midler. He has also appeared several movie soundtracks as well as his own recordings. So, how does a bright-lights kind of saxophonist play jazz?

Over the top, or course.

It takes balls the size of boulders to combine Sonny Rollins’ “Doxy" with the Rooftop Singers’ “Walk Right In" straight out of ...
