Tony Adamo – Was Out Jazz Zone Mad (Ropeadope Records): This appears to be hipster Tony Adamo’s sixth release updating his hip talk over a groove for a later generation beyond Harry The Hipster and Slim Gaillard. Adamo’s groove is musically connected or borrowed from Tower of Power or similar settings which he uses as the base for his commentary, spoken and/or sung. At his best, Adamo is righteous enough and his style definitely on the cool side. He typical performs with a combo varying from organ or keys and drums with occasional guitar, trumpet or sax. Adamo is basically focused on jazz figures and his style frequently lives in the mellower sound of rappers like Grandmaster Flash. Song titles span from “B.B. Kings Blues On Fire” and “Birth Of The Cool” to “Too Funky To Flush”. Musicians include Roger Smith, Wayne De La Cruz, Delbert Bump or Mike LeDonne (organ, keys), Kyron “K-Frost” Kirby, Lenny White, Vince Littleton or Mike Clark (drums, composer), Jack Wilkins, Elias Lucero or Chris Pimentel (guitar), Tim Ouimette (trumpet, valve trombone), Donald Harrison (alto sax), Richie Goods (bass), Michael Wolff (piano), and Bill Summers (percussion).
