简介:  Nutty returns with a 3rd album, a live recording that showcases 10 previously-unreleased songs and demonstrates the power and precision as well as the humor, sass and spontaneity of the band's live performance.      Nutty continues to weave classic rock and classic jazz songs into unique and unexpected jazzy re-imaginings, delivering mind-boggling quasi-originals that sound surprisingly appropriate. This album offer's Nutty's take on ZZ Top, Ramsey Lewis, Steppenwolf, John Coltrane, Cheap Trick, Heart, the Adderley Bros, Foreigner, KISS, Wes Montgomery, Yes, Dizzy Gillespie, Sweet and Santana. Part of the fun of these arrangements is listening for the reveals. Here are some clues:      "Bohemian Blitz" combines Cannonball Adderley's "Bohemia After Dark" with Sweet's "Ballroom Blitz".      "Magic Trane Ride" is a tribute to John Coltrane, featuring numerous Coltrane musical quotes, all within the context of Steppenwolf's "Magic Carpet Ride".      "The Sunglasses Crowd" opens with Ramsey Lewis' "The 'In' Crowd" and becomes ZZ Top's "Cheap Sunglasses". Listen for a snippet of "La Grange" as well.      "Beginning Voyage" is a blend of Emerson, Lake and Palmer's "From The Beginning" and Herbie Hancock's "Maiden Voyage".      By contrast, without any particular jazz song reference, "(Make It A) Double Vision" and "I'd Dig You To Dig Me" simply adopt crime jazz themes and swing hard on Foreigner's "Double Vision" and Cheap Trick's "I Want You To Want Me", respectively.      And so on...      The package is rounded out with cover art by retro illustration superhero, SHAG.
