Schwartz; Little Freak; Yours Is My Heart Alone One man comes to mind when the words “funk” and “fun” are connected with a jazz musi- cian: Les McCann. The man from Kentucky, self-taught and a true heavyweight on the deli- cate piano stool, dedicated his whole life on the road to performing funk. He was highly successful – whether playing with his trio or with Eddie Harris, as a pianist or as a singer, catalogue # 86016 in a club or on a big stage – and he always succeeded in captivating his audience. On But Not Really, the first of seven LPs on the Limelight label, he plays in a trio with Vic- set contents 1 LP / gatefold sleeve / booklet tor Gaskin on the bass and Paul Humphrey on drums. The three musicians were carefully guided by their producer, Jack Tracy and the liner notes describes their close collaboration. pricecode A Little Three-Four is highly recommended listening, as is Yours Is My Heart Alone which SC01 fans of Lehar’s operettas will enjoy singing along to while others will appreciate the fan- release date tastic improvisations in this popular piece which Les McCann performs less showily than February 2013 Oscar Peterson in his version but with more humour and emotion. barcode This Limelight album offers piano trio jazz that is free from intellectual encumbrance – it is jazz for the soul. Recorded in December 1964, the LP is now available once again after al- '!2G00BJ-hbeddg! most 60 years with the original outstanding and lavish cover artwork! original recording December 1964 at Radio Recorders, Hollywood Wenn ein Jazzmusiker mit "Funk" und "Fun" identifiziert wird, dann kann damit nur Les McCann gemeint sein. Der Mann aus Kentucky, Autodidakt und Schwergewicht auf dem original production wackligen Piano-Stuhl, war sein ganzes Leben im Auftrag des Funk unterwegs. Immer er- Jack Tracy folgreich, ob im Trio oder mit Eddie Harris, ob als Pianist oder als Sänger, ob im Club oder auf den großen Bühnen, zog er die Massen in seinen Bann. But Not Really, die erste von sieben Limelight-LPs, im Trio mit Victor Gaskin am Bass und Paul Humphrey am Schlagzeug, wurde liebevoll vom Produzenten Jack Tracy betreut; in den liner-notes wird die Zusammenarbeit beschrieben. A Little Three-Four lautet der Anspiel- tipp oder auch Yours Is My Heart Alone, zum Mitsingen für jeden Lehar-Operetten-Fan, ein beliebtes Impovisationsprungbrett aus der populären Musik, dem Les McCann weniger pia- nistisches Showdown als Oscar Peterson in seinen Versionen als vielmehr Seele, Humor und Emotion einimpft. Pianotrio-Jazz frei von intellektuellem Überbau, Jazz für die "Soul", bietet die Limelight- LP, aufgenommen im Dezember 1964 - nach knapp 60 Jahren endlich wieder in der hervor- ragenden und außergewöhnlich aufwändigen Cover-Artwork erhältlich!

Whether your interests are in classical, popular/folk or jazz music, you can now enjoy music performed in your home by your favorite artist — heard against a background of virtual silence. At last, you can listen to the music itself, not to the record! dbx Discs can be played on your present stereo system with the addition of a dbx Model 21 Disc Decoder or one of the dbx 120 or 220 series tape noise reduction systems.

Todd Johnson's Full Biography
Todd Johnson’s Biography Todd Johnson is recognized as a pioneer of the six-string electric bass. With his Zon signature model six-string bass, Todd has developed an innovative technique where he plays chord changes and bass lines simultaneously, plus his ability to play "chord melody" gives him an uniquely rich and fuller sound that proves extremely useful in both solo and small combo work. In his CD review, Cliff Engle of www.bassically.net notes that "Johnson's sophisticated chord melodies are unrivaled amongst his contemporaries. (He) has demonstrated that his innovative bass playing style is anything but traditional. (His) guitar-like chordal accompaniment style is reminiscent to that of the legendary jazz guitarists including Joe Pass, Wes Montgomery, and Ron Eschete. Johnson's guitar-like performance is so convincing that as a listener, if you were not made aware that Johnson was not a jazz guitarist, you would never to able to decipher the difference." Todd has been an integral member of the critically acclaimed jazz trio of guitarist Ron Eschete since 1991. Then in 2004, Johnson also joined forces with acclaimed bassist and singer Kristin Korb to form The Kristin Korb/Todd Johnson Trio. Johnson has also performed and/or recorded with other such artists as, Mike Stern, Poncho Sanchez, Frank Potenza, Dave Weckl, Scott Henderson, Plas Johnson, Lew Tabackin, Jack Sheldon, Rufus Reid, Mundell Lowe, Michael Manring, Paul Humphrey, and Frank Gambale. Though Johnson dedicates himself largely to performing and recording, he also teaches courses and workshops in a variety of settings. Since 1991 Johnson has served as a faculty member at such notable schools as Musicians Institute (BIT) 1991-1999, California Institute of the Arts 1998-2004, College of the Canyons 1999-2004 and The Master's College 2002 - present.
