Pushing the World Away

Pushing the World Away

2013 release from the Grammy winning Jazz saxophonist. Pushing The World Away captures Garrett at the peak of his creative abilities, both as a saxophonist and as a composer. Garrett pays tribute to a number of his influences/friends and heroes that include Chick Corea, Chucho Vald‚s, Sonny Rollins and Garrett's musical confidant and album co-producer, Donald Brown (Brother Brown). In all, Pushing The World Away features 12 tunes, all of which were composed by Garrett except for one cover, a superb, lyrical, odd-metered take on the Burt Bacharach/Hal David song "I Say a Little Prayer".
