Comprised of saxophonist Bob Mintzer, keyboardist Russell Ferrante, bassist Jimmy Haslip and drummer Will Kennedy (who was a member of the group from 1986-1998 and returned this year) the Yellowjackets celebrate their 30th anniversary as a "musical organization" (to quote Bob Mintzer) with the release of their 21st album "Timeline" on Mack Avenue.

For this special project with the formidable HR Big Band (Frankfurt Radio Big Band) they chose some new tunes from this album plus some classic Yellowjackets signature tunes.
