For your mental relaxation, zone out to the mellow sounds of multi-instrumentalist Nicholas Payton as he joins the band Butcher Brown who are always known for bringing great Jazz-Funk on "Selections From Numbers".


"The iconic Sketches of Spain, Payton’s latest release, is the second for his own imprint, BMF Records™. Released on September 24th, 2013, for his 40th birthday week, Grammy-winning trumpeter Nicholas Payton offered the world a present worthy of his immense skills: a live concert performance of the iconic Miles Davis-Gil Evans collaboration. Framing Payton’s virtuosic playing is a 19-piece ensemble comprised of 15 brass and woodwinds and a harpist drawn from the Sinfonieorchester Basel with conductor Dennis Russell Davies, and Payton’s long-time collaborators Vicente Archer on bass, Marcus Gilmore on drums, and Daniel Sadownick on percussion. The LA Times says Payton and band ‘shine a new light' on Mile Davis' 'knotty brilliance’."
