He finds inspiration and some unexpected connections in the the music of Cedar Walton, Stevie Wonder, The Beatles, John Coltrane, Freddie Hubbard while rediscovering the gospel lifeblood that fuels his jazz passion. "For too many years I ignored my own instincts," the pianist says. "I started out playing different kinds of music with all different kinds of people, but I took a detour. This record is a turning point; it's finally time to start doing what it is that I want to do." Through a range of moods and styles, Eric Reed recognizes that Everybody Gets the Blues, offering a spirited act of communion for those wanting to commiserate and a vigorous set of swing for those who've come out the other side.
