The Power Quintet cooked up a swinging brew of mostly original tunes with a decidedly post-hard-bop influence. All but two tunes of the two set offering were written by Pelt himself with a few from pianist Grissett. The packed house at Frankie&#8217;s, local musicians in abundance, were not disappointed as the band delivered high energy, immaculate, yet often daring variations on the contemporary but &#8216;feel good&#8217; compositions of Messrs Pelt and Grissett.<\/p>\n<p>In the following interview, Jeremy Pelt shares his thoughts on Jazz music, his plans for the future.
