Description

Maybe the most classic sounds so far from tenorist Timo Lassy and thats saying a hell of a lot, given the 60s style of most of his other records! The dates a live one, and features Lassy really stretching out with a raw, earthy groove a completely different side of his talents, but one that follows strongly from the soulful hardbop of his massive recordings for the Ricky Tick label! Instrumentation in the combo includes a great Wurlitzer piano, played with lots of organ-like notes plus bass, drums, and some sweet Latin percussion to give the whole thing the extra kick youd find on some Blue Note or Prestige session with Ray Barretto as a guest! All tracks are nice and long and titles include Just One Of Those Things, Shootin Dice, Touch Red, It Could Be Better, Wheres The Man, and Uncle Harry Came To Town/Sweet Spot.
