Review by Dr. Joyce Gale

Harold Mabern, a renowned pianist and composer, has released his latest album titled A Few Miles From Memphis. The album, released under the Smoke Sessions Records label, features Mabern's signature style of jazz and blues music, infused with a touch of soul and funk.

The album opens with a powerful rendition of "The Gigolo," a classic jazz tune that sets the tone for the rest of the album. Mabern's piano playing is impeccable, and his bandmates, including tenor saxophonist Eric Alexander, bassist John Webber, and drummer Joe Farnsworth, complement his playing perfectly.

One of the standout tracks on the album is "My Favorite Things," a classic tune that has been covered by countless jazz musicians over the years. Mabern's interpretation of the song is refreshing, with his piano playing adding a new dimension to the familiar melody.

Another highlight of the album is the title track, "A Few Miles From Memphis." The song is a tribute to Mabern's hometown of Memphis, Tennessee, and features a funky groove that is sure to get listeners moving.
