The album title of Chris Byars’ 13th release Rhythm and Blues of The 20s needs some clarification. It is not about the roaring 20s and not the R&B as you know it. It is about here and now 2020s and Rhythm and Blues comes from the fact that Byars’ compositions are either based on Gershwin’s I Got Rhythm or on Blues where jazz finds its cradle
