-
The
2022
return
of
Ronnie
Foster
to
Blue
Note
Records
is
an
event
of
synergistic
quintessence,
completeness,
and
cool.
The
organ
great’s
dynamic
new
album,
Reboot,
arrives
upon
the
50th
anniversary
of
his
1972
Blue
Note
debut
Two
Headed
Freap,
which
featured
his
memorable
tune
“Mystic
Brew”
that
would
later
reach
the
ears
of
hip-hop
fans
around
the
world
when
A
Tribe
Called
Quest
sampled
the
track
as
the
foundation
of
“Electric
Relaxation”
on
their
1994
album
Midnight
Marauders.
The
nine-song
Reboot
marks
a
fresh
start
for
Foster,
who
has
whipped
up
an
omnidirectional
brew
of
Hammond
Organ
Groove
that,
yes,
pays
homage
to
the
past
but
more
often
reflects
Ronnie’s
restlessness
for
ushering
in
the
new.
Mightily
hoisting
the
Blue
Note
organ
torch,
Foster
gives
thanks
to
the
musical
osmosis
that
was
poured
into
him
by
all
of
the
greats
that
preceded
him.
In
the
album’s
liner
notes,
Ronnie
makes
sure
to
pay
homage
to
one
very
important
person
in
his
life
who
passed
away
in
2021:
“This
album
is
dedicated
to
the
memory
of
my
brother,
friend,
Buffalo
Homie
and
hero
Dr.
Lonnie
Smith,
who
was
one
of
the
best
in
the
world
on
the
Hammond
B3
organ.”
