Tony Monaco about the recording:
This recording was meant to be a band experiment of recording ourselves so we could listen to ourselves in order to grow. I've always dabbled in recording as it is another one of my passions. I had (a now antiquated) 6 channel, 16 bit hard drive based digital recorder that I hooked up at a memorial weekend gig at our local (now closed) jazz club. When telling Darby at Summit records about the recording he wanted me to send a copy. He liked the recording so much he insisted it be a release. This CD actually has its own fan base. It captures a more raw organ recording as it is played live with an intimate audience. Jazz organ trios are always a fine up close and personal concert to attend. This CD definitely gives you that live and up close feel. Some of my fans and reviewers really like the sound and the uncut rawness, I have to agree that this recording is exciting and raw for sure!
