John Philip Shenale collaborated with many famous musicians, including Buddy Guy and, of course, Tori Amos. Moreover, he also worked with Bonnie Tyler on one of her biggest hits. No, I am not talking about the colossal progressive rock one, though the piece I'm discussing also has Jim Steinman among the songwriters and his mark can be heard. Mind you, I cannot really describe his trademarks, since his tunes have a paradox for me, i.e. they somehow sound the same to each other, while they also couldn't be more dissimilar from one another. I mean, the hit on the link does resemble a cannon shot that doesn't stop, you somehow have a hunch the propulsion of the composition shall quiet at one point, yet the latter doesn't occur.

Jeremy Steig – Firefly

Firefly is an album by American flautist Jeremy Steig recorded in 1977 and released on the CTI label.

The Allmusic review stated “Jeremy Steig’s jazz-funk throwdown, Firefly, is one of the great forgotten masterpieces of the genre… Firefly was designed for the purpose of being a hit in the dance clubs, and it should have been, because it kicks ass on that level as well as on the jazz-funk beam… This is burning”.

Jeremy Steig – flute Burt Collins, Jon Faddis, Joe Shepley, Lew Soloff – trumpet Sam Burtis, Jerry Chamberlain, Tom Malone – trombone Dave Taylor – bass trombone Richard Tee – keyboards Richie Beirach – piano Clifford Carter – synthesizer Hiram Bullock, Eric Gale, John Scofield – electric guitar Gary King – bass Steve Gadd, Allan Schwartzberg – drums Ray Mantilla – congas Googie Coppolla – vocals Sue Evans – percussion David Matthews – electric piano, arranger

Fred Lipsius: A Musical Genius?

The word genius is certainly thrown around too easily. But Fred Lipsius is an excellent alto saxophonist. Along with Randy Brecker (and later Lew Soloff) he was the true jazz voice in Blood, Sweat & Tears. This article in Patch.com fills in the rest of his career. Like other musicians who tour with crossover bands or make their living in the studio world, Lipsius’s jazz abilities has gone largely unnoticed.

Lew Soloff i Brønshøj

Af Ole Fessor Lindgren Jeg kan ikke huske det , men gætter på at det er omkring 50 år siden, at jeg hørte den superskrappe rockgruppe BLOOD, SWEAT & TEARS i Falkoner Centret. Lyttede begejstret til holdet og især den lynende skarpe LEW SOLOFF. At jeg næsten lige så mange år senere sad og øvede med ham og Big City Bandet i en varmekælder i Brønshøj havde jeg ikke i min vildeste fantasi…
