Well, as you all know Blogger has been cracking down and I have had multiple posts removed. So from now on, I'll be posting on wordpress. I will keep this one up for now but won't be posting new stuff here. Please try to update to your bookmarks, sorry for the inconvenience. http://bunsoplenty.wordpress.com/
David "Fathead" Newman - Concrete Jungle (1978)
Published on 2010-03-08 17:32:00
Sorry but my internet has been down and it put me out of commission for a bit. I will have some more posts up soon. Here's a '78 Prestige release. Shared by the one and only My Jazz World before the blog had to be moved. Overall, pretty laid-back, a little funk creeps in on a version of McCoy Tyner's "Blues For Ball" and some fusion in "Dance of the Honey Bee and the Funky Fly." The title track is of course a Marley tune, and other covers include tracks by Stevie Wonder and Marvin Gaye. Strings
