J.D. AND THE SONS OF RHYTHM

Bandcamp Includes Jammin' at Midtown as Bonus Tracks

stream all cuts ( requires mp3 player )

collective improvisation direct-to-disc

Beginning with Jammin' at Midtown, spontaneous music was the objective. To achieve this, experienced players were put on unfamiliar ground. They met new players, with hard-drive spinning and no charts to follow.

Chops were flexed.

Musical discussions in notes took place.

The objective was achieved in FAMILY VALUES, 15 tracks of music on 2 discs.

PlayErie.com Review...

********************

"Last year Jayson, Rickie, Keith and I got together with Sean and Dan of the Soul Crackers and invited them to come into the studio with us to jam for 2 days. Those sessions were released on the 'Jammin at Midtown' Album. Later we decided to do it again with various musicians. In every session most of the musicians never met let alone played together. There were no rehearsals, second takes or knowledge of any song structure other than the two songs with Julio. These sessions were products of improvisation, a high degree of creativity and technical expertise stirred by a huge degree of listening capacity and respect of each other. On a couple of songs you can hear someone yelling out a chord change, that's how immdeiate those sessions were. It was an honor and a pleasure for my family and I to work with such a great group of people coupled with great creative talents."

J.D.

Silently,
Precisely,
Swiftly,
The Artist
Strokes
The colorful canvas
Beautiful
