The Manhattan Jazz Quintet, led by David Matthews, celebrates its 30th anniversary with a new recording in New York! Arrangements by David Matthews, the "magician of arrangement", that touches the hearts of Japanese jazz fans, and the front lines of New York. Explosive performances by top-notch musicians!

So far, he has worked on numerous arrangements in the pop music field, and has won the Grammy Award for Arrangements twice. The songs of Paul Simon and Billy Joel are also arranged in jazz this time. Also included is a specially written tribute song to James Brown, for which Matthews has worked on many arrangements. Of course, MJQ's 30-year career includes jazz standards that have not yet been recorded!

Personnel: David Matthews (p,arr); Michael Rodriguez (tp); Chris Hunter (sax); Jon Burr (b); Jimmy Madison (ds)
