Frank Noviello Surprise!

Big thanks to a certain Mr. Gilles Peterson who first alerted Paul Murphy, Head of Jazz Room Records to this Spiritual Jazz meets Bebop gem when he played the track 'I've Known Rivers' on his show on BBC6 MUSIC. Paul immediately took steps to contact Mr. Noviello with a view to release this previously unknown (to him anyway) hidden delight. It's Frank Noviello's debut album and a mixed bag of Jazz Standards and highly original covers and originals. Randy Westons's 'High Fly' has a really grooving arrangement, Vocal Bebop in the original 'Tribal Dance' and the highlight in the Gary Bartz/Langston Hughes Spiritual Jazz outing 'I've Known Rivers'. If you're known to glide in and around to that Mark Murphy bag then this is hip to the trip for you!Tracklisting:A1. If I Were a Bell (3:18)A2. High Fly (7:14)A3. Some Other Time (7:52)B1.
