WHAT THEY SAY ABOUT JIMMY SCOTT AND THE JAZZ EXPRESSIONS:

The Jazz Expressions, led by Bassist Hilliard Greene, may be the best supporting group currently backing a singer.

---Bob Blumenthal, Boston Globe

 

The Jazz Expressions, led by inventive bassist Hilliard Greene…

---John Griffin, The Montreal Gazette

 

Marvelously empathetic backuptrio. . . Hilliard Greene, simply one of the best bassists I have ever heard with a singer, can sound like a flamenco guitar one moment and a wailing horn the next.

---Misha Berson, Seattle Times

 

The New York-based trio called The Jazz Expressions opened with high-octanebop. . . Their richly textural, three-way musical conversations…

---Joseph Blake, Times Colonist, Victoria
