Coming up on Wednesday, July 17 (7:30-9:30) Guitarist Dave Black and saxophonist Paul DeMarinis will be celebrating the digital release of their new album YESTERDAYS!
Over the past 3 decades that Paul and Dave have been performing together, they have cultivated a very deep musical bond...or a telepathy, if you will.
It is therefore most important to capture this magic so it won’t be missed nor forgotten. The CD contains a selection of standards…some popular, and some not so popular.
YESTERDAYS will be released on Mancuso Records (http://mancusojazz.com) ….recorded / mixed by master engineer/musician Steve Davis who is also very much connected with Paul and Dave.
