Hub Art: The Music of Freddie Hubbard

During a career as one of the most distinguished trumpeters in modern jazz, Freddie Hubbard cut a path from hard bop to funk and back again, with sidelong ventures into late-’60s Blue Note modernism. Two years after Hubbard's passing, another versatile, restless trumpeter, Nicholas Payton, pays tribute with a band featuring Hubbard collaborators like Javon Jackson, George Cables and Lennie White.
