It’s a body of work which sees guitarist and lead vocalist Zach Stephenson and drummer Billy Fleming stretching themselves creatively and embracing new sounds which, whilst unmistakably Hockey Dad, take the band into an invigorating new direction.

Doctor John's second solo piano album finds him combining country, blues, and New Orleans standards with originals, half of them instrumentals, and half of them containing vocals that sound like they were recorded off the piano microphone. This is not a high-tech recording, by any means, but in its unadorned way it does capture the flavor of Doctor John as directly as any record he's made.

Recorded in late 1960, Kenny Drew's seventh recording as a leader is significant for many reasons, not the least of which that it is one of the finest Blue Note hard bop statements in either of their catalogues. Teamed with rising young star trumpeter Freddie Hubbard and the wonderful tenor saxophonist Hank Mobley fresh off stints with Donald Byrd and Art Blakey, Drew joined the ranks of the premier mainstream jazz pianists just prior to moving permanently to Europe. He's a complementary piece of the puzzle as a player, but stirs the drink as the composer of all of these very fine hard bop vehicles.

Dad es un padre soltero que trabaja a tiempo completo cuidando de sus cuatro hijas. Tarea muy complicada cuando cada una tiene su personalidad bien definida y un carácter fuerte heredado de cada una de sus madres.

Con mucho humor y algo de ironía, Nob nos vuelve a enamorar con esta nueva entrega de Dad. Como ya hiciera en los tomos anteriores, el uso de referencias de la cultura popular y de situaciones llevadas al extremo nos permiten descubrir más cosas de esta familia tan peculiar y bien avenida.

"Dirt Floor" is the fourth studio album by a rootsy, blues-influenced rock guitarist who spent his career on the margins of mainstream acceptance. It was produced by Craig Street and recorded live direct to a two-track analog recorder using a single stereo ribbon microphone by Danny Kadar at Blue Moon Racing Shop (Whitley's father's barn) in Bellows Falls, Vermont.
