blues fountain of youth,
This review is from: Goin to Kansas City (Audio CD)
This man is amazing! His career has lasted over 60 years and he still puts out quality recordings. His rolling piano and bluesy vocals are accompanied by Duke Robillard, who is quite at home with this style of music. A wonderful recording by a wonderful musician backed up by totally sympathetic band.

This review is from: Goin to Kansas City (Audio CD)
Jay McShann is the most under-rated and unknown of jazz musicians. His playing, singing, and historical importance should place him as well known (and even more importantly), well listened-to original in the realm of Kansas City Jazz.Look his bios up on the net. Be amazed. If you don't know Jay, I urge to use this wonderfully produced CD as a starting place. The playing of the band - Milt Abel, Duke Robillard, Maria Muldaur, and Johnnie Johnson is terrific, and Jay's voice is in fantastic form. The term, Kansas City Jazz, gets thrown around a lot, but now Jay's gone, and KC Jazz will be forgotten if we don't keep doing our homework... If you want to pretend you know something of jazz, you must know this CD. (and... the intgerview at the end of the CD is worth the price of the CD - thanks to an unusually thoughtful producer) |
