Feb. 01, 2019 | 57 MinGenre: Documentary, Music Directors: Christopher Braig, Actor: Chuck Fertal, David Mathews, Fred Hersh, Jimmy McGary, Lynn Seaton, Michael Skaggs, Pat Kelly, Sean McGary, Steve Schmidt, Wayne Yeager,Tenor saxophonist Jimmy McGary was a major presence in the Cincinnati music scene from the 1950s until his death in the early ’90s. With music rooted in Bebop with a progressive slant, the Jazz legend was a session player for King Records and released his first album as a bandleader — The First Time (with a quartet that included pianist Pat Kelly) — in 1979. McGary’s spirit and legacy have lived on well after his passing and well beyond Cincinnati, as evidenced in this new documentary film.
