Drums Solo on
Minority

About

Adam Nussbaum's drums solo is the sole improvisation on this recording. Spanning one chorus of the 16-Bar form at a bright 296 BPM with a swing feel in F, the solo runs approximately 13 seconds. Nussbaum, a veteran drummer who has worked with John Abercrombie, Stan Getz, and many other jazz luminaries, delivers a single focused chorus of drum improvisation that distills his extensive experience into a compact, musical statement. This recording of Gigi Gryce's "Minority" from Stephen Riley's 2018 album Oleo features a brief but notable drum solo from Adam Nussbaum. Adam Nussbaum was 62 to 63 years old at the time of this 2018 recording.
