While in the hospital I spent a lot of time trying to sleep and thus a lot of time wearing my ear-covering headphones listening to music to try and block out all the noise. This is what I had with me. All new acquisitions and all well worth it.
Avi Bortnick is most well-known for playing rhythm guitar for jazz guitarist John Scofield. 2003’s Clean Slate is his only solo effort.
Mike Gordon is best known for being the bass player in the now defunct jam-band Phish. The Green Sparrow is his first solo effort since 2003 and just came out August 5th. I have an autographed copy.
Béla Fleck is best known as leader of the experimental jam jazz band Béla Fleck and the Flecktones while Edgar Meyer is best known as a classical bass virtuoso instrumentalist. Music for Two was recorded live in 2004 and is a combination of classical, bluegrass, and jazz with only double bass and banjo.
After posting my transcript I realized I had also listened to Bindlestick Bill best known to me as my daughter’s teacher but also known as a musician playing original, educational songs for children throughout the Hudson Valley and beyond. Bill’s debut Songs Along the Hudson is a mix of folk, ragtime and a touch of the blues and fun for all.
