JAQ - Jimi "U" - Albert Mair Quintet
Jimi and Albert got to learn each other in the year 1971 at the legendary club „Jazzfreddy“ in Vienna. At that time each played in a different band. For a big event in 1989 together they formed a band with their favorite musicians. The succes of this concert was overwhelming, and so this became the birth of the „Jimi U - Albert Mair Quintet“ or in short: J.A.Q.!

Subtitle of the album is "25 Very Good Years" and indeed as always JAQ stands for high-quality soulful Jazz with a nice entertaining touch. The songs are repacked in new and special arrangements and the vocal orientated listener as well as the Jazz fan, who wants to hear extended solos, gets what he needs! On these live recordings you'll hear all this loose and fresh!
