Yes, Tenacious D's first foray into jazz music is now available for your listening pleasure. Jack Black and Kyle Gass's first jazz album, entitled Jazz, only features one track, an 11-minute long snippet of free-form jazz exploration, but a video on the making of the album is also included, all for the low low price of $2.99. It's a steal for fans of comedy bands exploring different musical genres.
Tenacious D appeared on Craig Ferguson last night to promote their new jazz album, entitled Jazz, a limited edition vinyl-only release. They perform a truncated version of the album's only track, "Simply Jazz," which Ferguson points out runs 11 minutes and 36 seconds on the record. On the close-up of the album sleeve, you can see that "Simply Jazz" is listed under Side A and "Nothing on Side B" is listed under Side B. Jack Black ends up being a competent smooth jazz singer, showing off his well-known scatting abilities, while Kyle Gass knocks it out of the park with some grade-A jazz flutin'.
