The most fascinating track on the CD, “Mr. AC,” shows their ability to play straightforward jazz. BSTC should record future albums dedicated to jazz; while they play acid jazz well, their improvisational techniques and horn solos are impressive. While BSTC remains committed to producing material that defies easy categorization, an all-traditional jazz album would definitely showcase the group’s vast musical chops.
Overall, it took a few listens before I decided that I liked much of Music for a Saturday Evening. Perhaps the album is not meant for simply sitting and listening intently to the music; after all, the album’s title suggests that it’s meant as a soundtrack for dancing or just relaxing. While BSTC accomplishes that goal, it would be worthwhile for them to further explore traditional jazz in future releases.
