Brass Poison Too

With this second project, I once again wanted to explore some of the great music that was put out in the 70's and beyond, featured on Poison Brass. This time we added a little Brass Poison to Dizzy, Brubeck, Steps Ahead, King Crimson, and even the Beatles - along with some originals and a tribute to Maynard's classic tune L-Dopa. So turn up the volume,sit down between the speakers,or stick your buds in your ears and hold on to something!

With this project,I wanted to explore some of the great music that was put out in the 70's and beyond. I grew up listening to all the MF and Don Ellis Columbia stuff along with Blood,Sweat & Tears,Chicago,Tom Scott,the Brecker Brothers and so many others - I still love that era and it brings back many great memories when music seemed more creative and exciting.
