Summary
Doug MacDonald drops his latest album “Tribute to South Central,” a vibrant homage to LA’s legendary jazz scene, featuring a fresh quintet/sextet with Wayne Cobham, Richard Turner Jr., Del Atkins, Ronnie Kaufman, and Eric McKain. Packed with three jazz standards and five originals—including the shuffle blues “Blues In the Desert” and the swinging “Luces Azules”—the record showcases MacDonald’s signature subtle surprises and inventive solos. A nod to his roots in Philly, Hawaii, and Vegas, this album proves he’s still reinventing his sound while honoring the magic of South Central’s golden era.
