The New Mastersounds went to Nashville to record some of their classics live right to vinyl thus creating an album that has the groove and feel of one of their live shows. For those of us who listen to digital music, we had to wait 6 months digital version of the album and, man it was worth it.
Each of NMS members have virtuoso skills so putting them together melds intricate melodies with driving backbeats. The album showcases both their collective, interactive teamwork but also their exceptional solo skills. It’s a combination that’s hard to match.
I’ll be adding track reviews during the week. The New Mastersounds will hit Terminal West in a double bill with Turkuaz on December 15.
You can stream the album from the list on the right.
