THE C-NUTS:
Blitzkreig Bop and Other Jazz Mutations
 
Mapleshade Records
http://www.mapleshaderecords.com/cds/07752.php
 
I keep hearing the same thing about this CD: “I didn’t know what to think the first time I played the C-Nuts. Now it’s one of my favorites CDs.” These guys play traditional jazz versions of rock hits they grew up with—Dire Straits, The Pretenders, Joe Jackson, Peter Gabriel, all that. Every song is so transformed you’ll think you’re hearing it for the first time. Up front, Patrick’s powerful vocals blend Joe Cocker and Louis Prima. Behind him, four top-notch jazz guys stoke the fire. Recorded with see-his-tonsils clarity—the drums, bass and congas punch through with kickass dynamics. Clarinet and sax have that two-feet-away, wailing, live edge. Be sure to check out the band’s MP3s on our website. This is one not to miss! (#07752)
