NEW RELEASE RUNNING IN THE BACKGROUND
OUT NOW
"Running In The Background is one of Bruce Gertz's finest recordings...
...[featuring] nine of Gertz's pieces performed by an all-star quintet also including a tenor-saxophonist Walter Smith III, guitarist Vic Juris, pianist-keyboardist Lawrence Fields, and drummer Marvin 'Smitty' Smith. Recorded on May 25-26, 2019 and now being released, this is one of the last recordings of Juris who passed away seven months later and has been missed ever since."
