Dave Liebman, Part 1 (Drum Ode, Sweet Hands, Forgotten Fantasies, Light'n Up Please)

 










Another very prolific artist whose material ranged all over the place, from jazz to fusion, funk, contemporary, classical chamber, even the dreaded free jazz. You can see that we know him already well from the astonishingly brilliant masterpiece from Baird Hersey called Year of the Ear, which you can still find here as always (I think).   He also popped up with the Kawasaki material, here, on the wonderful and accessible Nature's Revenge album.

From the quite famous (so to speak) Drum Ode, 1975, the brilliance of the Loft Dance:

  2. Great, Thank you! I love Dave Liebman's music. My all-time favorite is "Lookout Farm", you will cover that I think. "Drum Ode" (in this bunch here) is also a really great record ...

  3. "Lightn' Up" was produced by Pee Wee Ellis of James Brown fame. Therefore we have Dave Liebman's version of "Chicken", later made famous by Jaco Pastorius.
    (Liebman's 1980 version of Rolling Stones' "Miss You" is also fun, I guess we'll get there in a few posts...)
