The guys a musical hero of mine!! Growing up before the digital age I would race to record shop ( Yea there were stores that only sold vinyl records back then) and plop down $7 on the newest album release by T.S. Not only was he a pioneer in the jazz funk fusion area he wrote produced recorded so many theme songs for popular tv shows.
to all your underwear comments regarding Tom Scott....!! just be the luck happy you hearing possibilities to listen and compare or complain ...end of long colon apertures !!
Sounds great!! There are so many distracting related video that are so amazing that i foget why i went on youtube in the first place. I was looking up Gil Evans then end up in TomScott teritory. Love getting lost!
Had the great pleasure of working and talking many times with Ralph MacDonald and we always covered this album. He said it was one of his favorites in terms of live recordings. RIP Ralph you were a great friend.
Ohhhhhhhh! That makes my heart hurt for you! I have the album but a friend recorded it to my on a cassette tape yearszzzz ago but eventually the tape broke. The WHOLE album is GOOD! I love "So White and So Funky"
I see people already replied, reeentttry, but anyway. On this great live album you have: Scott, Hugh McCracken, Eric Gale, Richard Tee, Miller, Gadd, MacDonald. Plus Dr John's vocals on one track (So White and So Funky) :D
@ reeerttrety Richard Tee on keys. Guitarist by last name of McCracken I believe. I believe Ralph McDonald on percussion. Recorded at the old Bottom Line in NYC. I ued to perform a lot of these tunes.
So. I have not checked out all post. Why is this LP unavailable on CD format and so hard to find on LP ? Tkis is a great album. One of the best of I thought was before the 80's Was it Marcus Miller , Steve Gadd, Who Elese.. Help me Poooleease
This was the title track of Tom Scott's 1983 album (the picture). It does not originate on the above mentioned album! Love this album. It's been my favourite funk album for 28 years - ever since it was released.
@coachcdobbs Absolutely! R. Tee on keys! Unique sound and cool FX (sounds like a phaser to me) and of course his unmistakeable touch. The man was a genius also on piano and Hammond! BTW: I'm a total Tom Scott fan. Usually, when I talk about Tom Scott to fellow musicians (I play the keys), they throw other names back at me which are "better". I don't see the point. I really love his playing. What he does, he does beautifully and with confidence. BTW: love the unusual three bar phrasing!
@whenairhitsyourbrain Recorded live January 15-16-17 1981 at The Bottom Line, NYC and I agree, what a great tune! I love this album. My dad bought it for me in 1981 and I wore my first copy out and bought another around 1990!
@MauricioNBP ...WAYYY ! Steve Gadd has worked and recorded with 'Spyro Gyra. And, Jay Beckenstein grew up on those 'Stuff' records. All these gize know, influenced, and have worked with each other.
It has Eric Gale, Richard Tee, Steve Gadd and Ralph MacDonald. Gale, Tee and Gadd was Stuff and Paul Simon band. Tunes; Late in the evening, 50 ways, and the movie One Trick Pony. They were kickin it long before Spyro Gyra.
