AUDIOPHILE AUDIOQUEST BRUCE KATZ BAND TRANSFORMATION SEALED LP

I 've been collecting vinyl records for the past 10 years and have decided to put many of them up for sale. All are audiophile, and most are highly collectible and with few exceptions, were purchased new and never played.

All used records will be cleaned professionally using vpi record cleaning machine.

I 'm a collector, so I know how important it is to pack and ship LP's correctly. I use a new record mailer for packing. I ship them usually in two working days after payment.

BUY IT WITH CONFIDENCE!!!

BRUCE KATZ BAND :

        Bruce Katz Doesn’t Want Anyone To Be Misted By The Title Tune Of His First Album . The Pianist, Organist And Composer Had More Than Just One Destination In Mind When He Put Together The Music For Crescent Crawl .

        “But The Tune Dose Sum Up A Lot Of What We’re About, “Katz Says . “It Shows A Microcosm Of Influences, Especially With The Introduction Coming Up Front Like It Does . I Was Coming From That James Booker, Professor Longhair Thing . The Way The Rhythm Lurches Along, It’s As If It’s Between Straight Swing And Straight Eighth Notes . “The New Orleans Inspired Groove Gives The Pianist A Base For The Kind Of Improvisational Exploration More Associated With The Jazz Neoboppers Of The ‘60s . The Result Is A Lively Mix Of Past And Present, Of Discipline And Delirium .

        As Katz Says, What He’s Trying To Do With His Beyond-Blues Hybrid Is, “Play The Groove Strongly, From Inside The Roots, Them Juxtapose Modern Harmonies Or Dissonant Melodies On Top And See What It Sounds Like.”

        Crescent Crawl Is Evidence That It Sounds Pretty Good . In Addition To New Orleans, The Trio – Katz, Drummer Lorne Entress And Bassist Marty Ballou – Looks To Kansas City, St. Louis And Chicago (Lots Of Chicago) To Find A Strong Rhythmic Foundation For Their Music, “A Lot Of Musicians Pay Just A Passing Nod To A Certain Type Of Blues Or Mood Or Groove While Doing It In A Style That’s More Modern, “The Pianist Says . “But I Want To Hear That Groove Strongly When I Play, Whatever Style It Is .”

        As Important As The Groove Is To This Music, You’ll Also Hear Improvisations That Explore The Musical Periphery . His Sound Is Expansive And Insistently Probing On “One Way Ticket” And “Just An Expression,” Probably The “Purest’ Jazz Tunes On The Collection . Even The Unabashed Jump Number “Buzz Cut” Shows Katz Has Progressive Things On His Mind, Adding The Kind Of Clusters Even Cecil Taylor Might Admire .
