This Map has to work! ROCK ON!!
A Note From The Artist:
As the child of hard-core classical musicians, I was forbidden to listen to the Beatles - or any other pop-music artist with the possible exception of George Gershwin and Scott Joplin.
One day, while innocently watching black and white daytime tv in Concord, New Hampshire, I caught a clip of "Cheap Trick" playing a song called "Oh Candy".
The power-pop seed had been planted; my life was never the same from that moment on!
Fast forward to Boston - somewhere in the 1980's when Joe Perry was out on his own and practicing in an infamous warehouse behind a huge hardware store called Moe Black's (...infamous? Just ask anyone in Aerosmith!!)...
One evening, with my band set-up in the same facility, and Joe nowhere to be found, I ventured over to "their side of the joint" and plugged my Fender Rhodes Stage Piano into Joe's massive guitar amplifier. Suddenly I was harnessed with the power I had been searching for (...but never could find as a piano player...) and I became fascinated by the changes in sound I could achieve by varying "touch sensitivity" and using "altered chord voicings".
The VOODOO Jets is the band I brought to life based upon these experiences.
There are NO GUITARS anywhere on this record, nor are there any digital guitar samples to be found. It's a Rhodes through a Marshall, end of story.
Sure, I have evolved the EQ settings a bit and I use a WAH Pedal and the wonderful Roland AX-1 Controller with Pitch-Bend capability, but the core of what is on this CD was born in Waltham, Massachusetts, deep within the dusty confines of a ratty old warehouse.
Thanks Rick...and Thanks Joe!!
