Pianist and organist Ross Stanley's commanding soul-jazz Hammond grooves are often at the heart of the leader's creations (influenced by the likes of John Scofield, Eddie Harrris and Behki Mseleku), including high-energy \"Stutterfunk\" with Ryan Trebilcock's pulsating electric bass inspiring sassy horn licks and effervescent flute and sax improv, and country-blues rock-out \"Roots\".Fistfight At The Barndance \/ Do It \/ Roots \/ Mel's Spell \/ Forever Now \/ Stutterfunk \/ We'll Never Meet Again \/ Aby7innia \/ On the Fly \/ One for Junia \/ 5B3 Boogie\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTracks:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Gareth Big Band Lockrane","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":32240586227783,"sku":"39907523","price":36.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2976\/0132\/files\/3736906-2524242.jpg?v=1711426470","url":"https:\/\/tower.com\/products\/gareth-big-band-lockrane-fist-fight-at-the-barn-dance","provider":"Tower Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
