SOME VIDEO LINKS OF JAZZ FUSION PERFORMANCES -- VOYAGER -- Live at California State University, Fresno (CIRCA 1993)
JB's Lounge - Live jazz performance inside The Red Lion in Sacramento, California
LO-FI STUFF: Cozy is a keyboard and vocal recording I produced with a neo-soul feel. The lyrics are written by blues/jazz/pop singer, Christine Rowe. The music is sung and played live to a vintage Tascam Porta Studio with one vocal overdub track.
This is the work of a recording artist/film composer/musical director/jazz musician and mentor, Larry Gittens. Larry is a very gifted and talented performer/multi-instrumentalist that I had the pleasure to work with for a few years in a band called Media. As a bonus, I had the pleasure of recording with him on this CD with some additional world class musicians and recording artist. Here is his (aka T-Voyce) version of the very popular Kool and the Gang tune, Too Hot If you're into recording, you'll have to check out his trumpet with octave divider solo tone! Sweet! [Click on:] Dual Identity -- Larry Gittens and Media to listen to post of a couple of his regional hits in the Smooth Jazz genre!
Gittens is a veteran musician and versatile performer, whose musical story began in a small town in NJ. Self-taught on the trumpet as well on keyboards, Larry was named Best Jazz Trumpeter in the state by Down Beat magazine. He went on to study at the Berklee College of Music in Boston, spent some time teamed up with the late Grover Washington Jr., and then landed a gig with Stevie Wonder, appearing on six of Wonder’s most successful recordings. Most recently he’s performed with Kool and the Gang and has been working with bassist Jimmy Haslip and vocalist Bobby Caldwell on a couple of other projects. In the midst of this heavy schedule, Gittens also found time to record Dual Identity, his debut effort as a solo artist. A very nice CD it is, one that is packed with great melodies and the type of the energy that is often associated only with live performances too.
