sidewinder Posted July 31, 2006 Report Share Posted July 31, 2006 The spiky haired 'fiddler extra-ordinaire' has apparently made his Blue Note debut. Sound samples here... Kennedy Plays Blue Note It isn't 1st April is it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aggie87 Posted July 31, 2006 Report Share Posted July 31, 2006 I don't have any of Kennedy's recordings, nor am I familiar with him, but at least he's not *yet another* singer-songwriter that BN is forcing down our throats. Looks like there are some good musicians working on this project (DeJohnette, Carter, Lovano) and there are some covers of classic BN material. I'm willing to try this out, over an Amos Lee, Keren Ann, etc., all of whom may be perfectly fine musicians, but still aren't what I consider BN artists.

Blimey, track 2 is Duke Pearson's 'Sudel'. Maybe things aren't quite so bad. I agree also that the list of backing musicians looks pretty good. Jack DeJohnette can't be wrong (can he?).

He was in the last Blues Brothers movie, it helps to have him on board. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ep1str0phy Posted August 1, 2006 Report Share Posted August 1, 2006 Any way you slice it, that's a helluva group (many of whom are old pros at the crossover stuff). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andybleaden Posted August 1, 2006 Report Share Posted August 1, 2006 Sounds fun to me. he always had a healthy disrespect for the old toffs over here which was always refreshing. Hey , seeing as both he and Lonnie Smith did a Hendrix thing...they could be brought together on Blue Note for some weird retake on Think!....now would n't that groove!
