When Joan Hutton and Sue Orfield came together to be the frontline for their new group, Take That Back, the chemistry was tangible immediately. With Hutton on alto sax and bass clarinet and Orfield on her trusty tenor, the group recorded one of the most critically acclaimed jazz albums to come out of the Twin Cities this year. Backed by a seasoned rhythm section, Take That Back, is a band worth catching live if the opportunity presents itself. Jazz88 is featuring the song, “Memory Bait.”
