Rodric White is proud to release his new album ‘BLUES FOR BOB’ inspired by / dedicated to legendary Australian jazz pianist composer Bobby Gebert.

Collaborating with celebrated saxophonist composer Dale Barlow and Bobby’s prestigious rhythm section of bassist Jonathan Zwartz and drummer Andrew Dickeson, the quartet has recorded new music inspired by Bobby Gebert, honouring his remarkable legacy.

The Bobby Gebert Trio featuring Jonathan and Andrew were the rhythm section of choice for International Artists Mark Murphy, Junior Cook, Johnny Griffin, Eddie Henderson, Claire Martin, Richie Cole, Ronnie Scott and Justin Robinson, on tour in Australia and featured in Concert at the Manly International Jazz Festival and The Basement (Sydney).

Dale Barlow enjoyed a long close professional association and friendship with Bobby over many years, even receiving driving lessons from the Maestro.

Rodric White was fortunate to study jazz privately with Bobby, receiving a two hour piano lesson every Friday morning at the Gebert family apartment in Cammeray (Sydney).

For this project, Dale and Rodric wrote new compositions, choosing other music strongly associated with Bobby: music by Thelonious Monk, McCoy Tyner, Ray Brown, George Cables, plus standards by Cole Porter and Jay Livingston / Ray Evans.

The Quartet recorded their album in November 2025 at Electric Avenue Studios (Pyrmont, Sydney) in the expert hands of sound engineer Phil Punch. The ten tracks were mixed by Phil and Jem Hoppe. The album was mastered by Bob Scott.

BLUES FOR BOB is an exciting captivating album featuring Australia’s finest jazz musicians, with lots of great musical surprises, energetic performances, outstanding solos and superb ensemble playing.
