Ted Unseth & the West Bank Tractors

This album was 32+ years in the making:
Original takes are from 1969-1973.
Virtual Band augmentation completed 2006.
Basement Bootleg Virtual Band Full Studio Mix.

Ted Unseth, Founder/Originator of the original Wolverines Classic Jazz Orchestra (1973-1980) and current Director of the Americana Classic Jazz Orchestra (ACJO), was an ardent Singer/Songwriter (before the CJO projects) based on the West Bank of the University of Minnesota, Minneapolis, MN. Performing sparsely in public but extensively for friends and private functions, Ted had a reputation for a unique Touch (on Guitar and Piano) and one-of-a-kind Sognwriting and Singing. He also taught Guitar at the West Bank School of Music.

In those few short years, Ted truly lived the life of a Troubador/Vagabond and devoted all of his time to creating original music.

These tracks are from timely rescues of reel-to-reel and cassette tapes that were on the brink of disintegration. With self-taught skills on the computer, Ted was able to edit and enhance the original recordings and save them digitally. The Dream Come True phase happened when Ted discovered he could augment the originals with Music Loops and Soundfonts via computer = Finally, a Full Band Mix!

"It''s really quite amazing what you''ve done here." Bruce Carlson, USACE.
