KIRK EDWARDS/AKA Project: If the Airmen of Note has given you a taste of good things the military can do with our tax money, take a spin with this cat who was with the Coast Guard band for 20 years and knows what to do with a sax. Surrounded by first call cats that know the score and recording at Van Gelder’s, this straight-ahead jazz quartet is so in the pocket you hope they find the time and tide to go out as a real band sometime. Tight and solid, these guys blow up a most righteous storm. Well done.
