Tony, Tony, Tony Has Done It Again Part II
Tonight we featured the entire interview with bassist/composer Tony Levin. Tony talked about his upcoming shows, recent trips, and his excellent new disc Resonator which debuted at #6 in the Weekly Top 20 last week, and hit #1 this week! Tony reflected on performing live, and working with old buddies Jerry Marotta and Larry Fast. He talked about Jesse Gress being on the second recording, as well as Tony’s brother Pete. Tony is an old friend to the show that has always been good to us. He reflected on his travels to Russia and how as a musician, although being happy with his past work, he doesn’t like to look back. Resonator brings Tony into a new realm that is making me drool for the Progressive Legends Show Nearfest weekend. Can’t wait.
Givin' A Shout Out To My Peeps
After such huge response on last Saturday’s visit from Drummer/Composer Gregg Bendian, we continued on reflecting his catalog by featuring the Mahavishnu Project Phase Two and the excellent Bone Structure (One of Cozy’s favorites). We featured the third and supposed final part of guitarist Adrian Belew and his Side Three CD. Another fine document of Adrian and his many faces. We featured the sophomore release of OSI titled Free. We also featured the latest release from ECM label in Charles Lloyd’s Sangam. My favorite portion of the show was our birthday salute to keyboard great Jan Hammer. I can’t wait to see The Mahavisnu Project play with this legend. Should be an unbelievable performance! Thanks Syrinx
