ROBERT CRAY BAND - 4 NIGHTS OF 40 YEARS LIVE (DELUXE EDITION) (2015) 2CD

Robert Cray is to release a double CD and video package 4 Nights of 40 Years Live. The first CD is fresh, live recordings from four nights recently recorded at four venues in the LA area. With his current band --longtime bassist, collaborator and friend Richard Cousins, keyboardist Dover Weinberg (who was in Cray's first band) and drummer Les Falconer (O'Jays, Keb 'Mo) ' Cray fronts a group that is solid, seasoned and vital. The playing is in the moment, and the sound is singular. The thirteen cuts are selected from the Cray Band's recording library of 20 releases. Among them are rock radio favorites 'Bad Influence' and 'Right Next Door (Because of Me),' the soul searing 'Love Gone to Waste,' and 'These Things,' a bluesy ballad that features one of Cray's string-bending and mind-blowing guitar solos. The live CD is the fourth Cray Band release produced by Steve Jordan, who plays drums on several cuts. Also guesting are vocalist Kim Wilson and harmonica player Lee Oskar, tenor saxophonist Trevor Lawrence, trumpeter Steve Madaio and saxophonist Tom Scott. The bonus CD is a revealing glimpse of Cray's early career and the promise of a future that would reward fans for decades. Selected from the band's set at the 1982 San Francisco Blues Festival and a 1987 appearance on the Dutch TV Show 'Countdown,' the music captures the band's youthful presence and its ability to revive the blues without abandoning it. Included are favorites from the Cray's Band 80s set lists; 'Smoking Gun' and 'Too Many Cooks.' Здесь вы можете слушать онлайн Robert Cray, Robert Cray Band, mp3 бесплатно и без регистрации.
