MP3 Sam Crain - Oop Bop Sh' Bang
10 MP3 Songs
JAZZ: Bebop, JAZZ: Latin Jazz
Details:
SAM CRAIN is a jazz guitarist and composer from Springfield, Illinois, with 14 other CDs to his credit-all available here on CD Baby. His playing draws from different styles, from straight-ahead jazz to fusion, rock, R & B and other styles, still with something(or other) all his own- imagine perhaps George-Benson-meets-Robert-Cray, or along that line..
OOP BOP SH'' BANG is Sam''s 4th CD, and his second CD to be recorded at Third Stone Productions in Decatur IL. True to the title, the bebop side of Sam''s playing is definitely explored, but things also veer into Latin and Contemporary ''territory'' here and there. All original material, by Sam, and GG Pelletier(saxophonist on 2 of the selections)and by DC Hall, who is Sam''s old "boss" from a roadband during ''84-86(see bio a bit further down). Modern jazz is the main entree here with a few funky and latin side dishes. Bon appetit!
"Oop Bop Sh''Bang" has sold online to listeners in France, Canada, Hong Kong and England as well as throughout the US(including Hawaii!)and has enjoyed some radio play out of Bridgeport, CT on a show called "The Upper Room with Joe Kelley". It''s also available online through Audio Lunchbox. Most recently one of the selections- Roadside Romance- has been featured on a Podcast: https://www.tradebit.com
