For legendary drummer Al Foster, it stems from the two groups of people who are closest to him: the jazz giants he's been honored to play with (and who, though he'd be the last to admit it, have been blessed to work with him); and, first and foremost, his family. On his latest album, Inspirations \u0026amp; Dedications, Foster pays back his loved ones and collaborators with a set of songs written or interpreted in their honor. Inspirations \u0026amp; Dedications is largely composed of Foster's original tunes, which lovingly tip their hats to his wife, children, grandchildren, colleagues, and even himself. The album is bookended by a pair of classics by two of the jazz icons with whom the drummer has worked extensively: Herbie Hancock and Miles Davis. Each piece comes vividly to life through Foster's stellar quintet: trumpeter Jeremy Pelt, saxophonist Dayna Stephens, pianist Adam Birnbaum, and longtime bassist (and dedicatee) Doug Weiss.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"4","offers":[{"title":"New","offer_id":50787283239208,"sku":"88829587591","price":17.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0933\/3833\/7576\/files\/3674735-2623150.jpg?v=1763992015","url":"https:\/\/waterloorecords.com\/products\/foster-al-inspirations-and-dedications-cd-8829587591","provider":"Waterloo Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
