Bill Heid - Wylie Avenue
) | Label: Zube Records Catalog: DR011 Format: CD HEID, BILLFollowing the success of Asian Persuasion, released in 2008, Wylie Avenue reunites Bill with Peter Bernstein, Michael Petrosino and George Jones for another highly memorable outing. Each of the cuts here are inspired by the great organists I've heard over the years; Jimmy Smith, Don Patterson, Larry Young, John Patton, and so many more and I was fortunate to get a hard swinging group behind me. Drummer Mike Petrosino loves to play it all - hard be-bop, blues shuffles, hip-hop and neo-soul grooves. As for Peter Bernstein, the perfect guitarist for an organ date - great solos, perfect comping, with percussionist George Jones. Bill Heid reminds us once again that he's one of the most advanced, articulate and exciting Hammond organ practitioners anywhere today. Wylie Avenue brings him home and pays worthy tribute to the Hill District's jazz legacy.  Price: $24.98 |
