Love On Lexington is an original composition by alto saxophonist Justin Chart, appearing on his 2024 album Born of The Horn. The tune was first featured on Chart's album Prosper, where reviewers noted it as a standout for its extraordinary explosion of energy, opening with commanding trumpet and drum solos that defy expectations. The composition is built around emotional integrity and nuanced tonality, cutting through the album's more impressionistic and lyrical moments with high-energy rhythmic drive and interactive structure. Reviews in Cadence Jazz World and Fanfare have praised the piece for its intuitive interplay and heart-driven expression, qualities that align with Chart's broader artistic emphasis on melodic spontaneity and raw performance energy. On Born of The Horn, the tune features solos from keyboardist Mike Saul, Chart on alto saxophone, drummer Danny Beallo, and trumpeter Mike Rocha, each contributing to the composition's dynamic character. Love On Lexington sits within Chart's evolving body of work that includes albums such as Intuition, The Midnight People, and Prosper, all of which build on his commitment to virtuosic saxophone playing and live-performance vitality. The composition remains exclusive to Chart's own recordings, representing a high-energy focal point in his original repertoire.
