Hiromi's Sonicbloom,

      Wow, that is all I have to say. This is an incredible band. Hiromi Uehara is a virtuoso pianist and has been playing since she was 5 and she also graduated from Berklee College of Music. This band is of course made up of members of equal talent and once you listen you will agree. . Since I am still new to this band I am still in awe of the sounds coming through my speakers. I love the fusion sound they create together, sometimes they sound a little like Aquarium Rescue Unit without the vocals, a bit of Chick Corea thrown in and a touch of Scofield, then sometimes you get more of a traditional piano jazz band.

      Dave Fiuczynski,(Screaming Headless Torsos, KIF, etc...), plays guitar when he doesn't have teaching requirements at Berklee(Guitarist John Shannon performs with the group when Fiuczynski is unavailable).  Also playing with her are fellow alums bassist Tony Grey and drummer Martin Valihora. This is must hear music especially if you like jazz/rock fusion or just music in general. Once again thanks for reading and turn it up, louder!

Primus 2000-02-22 Harro East Ballroom; Rochester, NY

          Here is a little Primus for you guys. This is a very nice recording, that has also been touched up a bit. There might be a little clipping but I seriously doubt you will notice anything at all. Good versions of just about everything played. This is when Primus was still more of a straight up rock band, before they started really stretching out the songs. I really enjoy this period of Primus. Well, I'm sure you will enjoy this as much as I do so turn that dial up and get down. see ya.

Karl Denson's Tiny Universe May 31st 2003 Smilefest

          I 'm just gonna have to say that this show is in my top ten shows that I have seen. They gave us everything you could ask for in a show, lots of banter, solos, special guests and you couldn't stop dancing if you tried!
      
          They opened with "Chicago", a classic Meters inspired funk cut featuring some nice guitar soloing, and Karl really shining with his sax. Fareed Haque from Garaj Mahal joins on "Because" and things really start to get interesting. The band flies through a cover of "Manic Depression" and then sticking with the manic pace with a speedy trip through "New York City". Fareed comes back out for good on a 25 minute version "Hopscotch" and it's almost like Fareed has been playing in the band forever. The band really takes the music out there and they don't come back around until they are finished with "Satisfied" some 45 minutes later. We get a killer psychedelic version of "Check Out Your Mind" followed by your not so standard  drum solo. "Reality" brings us back to Earth and I find myself completely satisfied, which is rare for me with one set shows.

         This is a great sounding recording, with an almost perfect sound stage. I hope you get as much enjoyment out of this as I do. Once again turn it up, not down!

Grateful Dead 1990-07-21 World Music Theatre; Tinley Park, IL

          This is one of my all time favorite shows. First set is a nice mix of Bob, Jerry tunes with a little Brent thrown in for good measure. Brent really shines on Walkin' Blues and Friend of a Devil. We also get a nice Bird Song to round out this set.
          The second set is where this show really shines. The Scarlet > Fire are absolutely blistering versions with great playing by Garcia and lots of fine interplay between Bob, Jerry and Brent. Bobby is in fine form on Playing and Jerry is picking his heart away. They flow into He's Gone like the songs belong together and the He's Gone really has some emotion to it, almost as if they knew Brent would pass away in a couple of weeks. We get a standard Miracle out of space and then a very rare Crazy Fingers in this spot of the show. Dear Mr. Fantasy has always been one of my favorite covers and I really enjoy this one. They leave the Hey Jude playing out of this and it's just the way I like it. A rocking little Playin' reprise into One More Saturday Night. The Mighty Quinn for an encore makes for a mighty fine show. Check it out and turn it up! Enjoy. Joey

Screaming Headless Torsos - Live!!

         

            I have to say this live album kicks some serious ass. If you love funk, jazz and a touch of punk you will love this band. All of the musicians can hold their on and more. Dave 'Fuze' Fiuczynski is always on demand as a session guitarist, has played with Stewart Copeland and is also busy with his other group "KIF". Dean Bowman on vocals is much more than a vocalist, he has been described as a "vocal-mentalist" and a "jazz singer with the soul of a rocker". He has played with Charlie Hunter, John Scofield, MeShell Ndegeocello as well as his own groups and many others. Bassist Fima Ephron has played with a plethora of musicians also, some including ,Walter Becker, Natalie Merchant, John Zorn and dozens of others. Percussionist, Daniel Sadownick has recorded and toured with the The Roots, Al Green, Steely Dan, Michael Brecker, Dennis Chambers, Christian McBride and many more. Finally drummer Gene Lake, he has played with the likes of Me'shell NdegeOcello, Maxwell, D'Angelo,Steve Coleman and Henry Threadgill. As you can see all of these musicians are in high demand and they shine bright together as a group. Do yourself a favor and grab this, then go and grab the rest of their catalog.

Tool July 15, 1998 Wings Stadium, Kalamazoo MI

       Hello. Well here is some Tool to get through your Monday. I don't know a whole lot about this band. Honestly, I just started listening to them. I don't have a review for this show because I really don't know if it is a good show or not or if the performance is good. I'm think we will definitely let the music speak for itself today. Anyways I know it is a great sounding copy so turn it up and blow Monday away...

I'm not really a big fan of Tool, which is strange as I like APC a lot.
But I got a lot of requests from people who wanted a 13'd Tool show,
so I grabbed this and smacked it up good. Very big improvement on a
pretty good show, and that says something coming from a non-fan
(although I did enjoy a few of these tunes, these guys certainly rock
live. I could be converted someday.)

Tool fans Enjoy!

Tom Waits - Nighthawks On The Radio - Dec. 14 1976 - New York City, NY


 
      Today i give you one awesome radio show. Tom Waits at his best. Great interviews and you get a really good look into Waits personae at the time.  I really get the feeling of being on the streets of some unknown city at midnight or early morning with a slight drizzle during much of these songs. I think it's just this time period of Waits that makes you see things from a street corner perspective. Anyways check out this brilliant performance and decide for yourself, because your musical life is not complete without first digging into Tom's catalog of sometimes haunting and always bizarre performances.

Tom Waits - Rats & Angry Flowers - October 17 1999 ,Vancouver, Canada



      

      Tonight I have some Tom Waits to please your ears. After releasing Mule Variations in 1999 Tom Waits did an extensive tour in the summer and fall to back up the album. This show has a nice mix of tunes from Mule Variations and a couple of albums beforehand. 

       Well, during this time period you get a nice mix of Tom Waits stage personalities, from the piano troubadour to the  juke joint prankster. Tom starts out by getting the crowd riled up with the big top screamer Black Rider then eases into the Cuban grooves of Jockey full of Bourbon. I always love Tom's banter with the audience and you get plenty of this starting out on a fantastic rendition of Get Behind the Mule. He keeps things upbeat with Down Down Down before settling into Hold On, Tom's raspy vocals are perfect for these beautiful lyrics. Tom throws in some of his humor with a short little story about a local business in Vancouver and then gets the show moving again with an energetic 16 Shells from a thirty ought six . 

I'm going to stop here and let the music do the talking. More Waits to follow in the next few days. Thanks and enjoy!
