Tony's Toronto Trio ON FIRE
You're gonna love how smokin' Tony plays REAL B-3 here.
His Toronto Trio is on fire; the music feels great!
So many highlights ... favorites are the hip/extremely FUNKY,
"Ode to Billie Joe" and "Slow Down Sagg" (from Jimmy Smith's ROOT DOWN classic). Tony plays with a new cutting edge sound way beyond traditional barriers expected from this sort of trio date.
Every year my friends and I never miss Tony in Toronto; listening to this live CD reminds us of how (on stage) Ted, Vito and Tony quickly became soaked in sweat. At times Tony sounds af if he's trying to dismantle the Leslie cabinet by pushing the organ till the big speaker explodes. It's all (nasty fun) good.
The #1 MOST highly recommended jazz organ CD of 2008!
