(6/23/01) From The "Wiggling Air Molecules" Laboratory of Prof. Futz

The Summer Soltice is past...

And the good Professor has been quietly negotiating the right to present you, the viewer/listener with some new artists and their work. The "proof is in the pudding", as they say...so chew gently! First up is noted acoustic guitarist, composer, Peter Neri, with his debut solo release "Night Visions". Check out the clips. This is a whole new pallet of stylings, and I think you're going to love it!

And just ahead, we'll be bringing you the soulful folk blues duo of TERRY - featuring Terry Diers and Terry Youk.

And shortly, a truly "world class" jazz artist...

So "buckle up" -- this is just starting to get interesting!

In "Reel-time"

Mark Levreault's added many upgrades to Perfect Chord Productions Recording, recently, including a new Sony 2-inch, 24trk analog recorder, and a new playback system designed to repulse nuclear attack and simultaneously produce ultra-accurate playback of recorded music. These upgrades effectively place Mark among some of he best studio facilities in New England. The only problem was getting the twelve-ton construction crane into the studio to lift the monitors onto their pedstals...

I stopped by, last week, to listen to some out-takes of sessions with some recent clients, and I've got to say - I heard great sounds, well-produced. If you're looking to turn out high-end recordings, Mark's ears, skill, and high-end recording gear are all you're likely to need. More on some of these projects, and the artists behind them, shortly.

"Max"-imum LA Fusion

FULL MEASURE is almost finished negotiating rights to offer you CDs by famed bassist / composer Max Bennett, famed bassist/composer, (the man with a musical Curricula Vitae longer than Route 66). Initial offerings of Max's work will include three of his phenomenal CDs "Great Expectations", "People and Places", and "Private Reserve". If you'll recall, this is the guy who co-founded the "LA Express", with Tom Scott, played with the original "Crusaders", Frank Zappa, Ella Fitzgerald, Steely Dan, and a host of other Jazz and Rock luminaries. Max virtually invented the LA 'fusion' sound, and these three CDs are a platinum testament to his vision, artistry, and masterful craftsmanship - It just doesn't get any better... Check Max and his music out at www.maxbennett.com

 

We're almost ready to unleash some new talent upon the FM site. Stay tuned, 'cause we're almost there! Well... That's about all for the moment. Our fingers are numb, and Hobie the Mouse is exhausted...Thanks for visiting FULL MEASURE MUSIC -- the place where water flows uphill, and all the Nuns are open-minded.
