  • Description

    Capping a two decade-plus discography of popular and often groundbreaking contemporary jazz recordings, legendary guitarist Chuck Loeb fulfils a lifelong dream with the release of 'Plain 'n' Simple' - to record in a classic jazz organ trio. The album features inventive ensemble work with celebrated drummer Harvey Mason (his band mate in the group Fourplay) and organist Pat Bianchi.

    Loeb's dynamic, swinging approach to the ten originals and two covers hark back to the cherished influential recordings that sparked Loeb's early interest in jazz. Growing up, he was most inspired by Wes Montgomery's 'Boss Guitar', Montgomery's later recordings with Jimmy Smith ('Jimmy & Wes: The Dynamic Duo' and 'Further Adventures of Jimmy and Wes') and George Benson's seminal work with organ greats Jack McDuff and Lonnie Smith (especially 'The George Benson Cookbook'). Special guests on 'Plain 'n' Simple' include percussionist David Charles, trumpeter/trombonist Nathan Eklund, trumpeter Till Bronner and saxophonist Eric Marienthal.

    Personnel: Chuck Loeb (guitar), Pat Bianchi (organ), Harvey Mason (drums) plus guests
