#797: Vaults: Live Horns and Guitars

New Sounds | May 24, 2010
From a New Sounds Live concert at Town Hall first broadcast in 1992, hear music from Bach to rock, with stops at jazz, surf music in between, as well as some serious funk horn-playing on this From the Vaults edition of the show. First off, Saturday Night Live band member and Tower of Power horn section headmaster Lenny Pickett leads the Borneo Horns, laying down some sweet funk-a-licious groove. The second half of the show contains none other than the California Guitar Trio, as introduced by the venerable leader of the Guitar Craft school and rock guitarist Robert Fripp.
