LIVE
INTENTIONALLY! was recorded live. I wanted to capture the spontaneous
intensity and energy of playing jazz without a safety net. I also wanted
to test my own performance and improvisatory skills in real time. I
wanted to “walk the walk” without relying on overdubbing solos later or
“fixes-in-the-mix.” Pianist Eric Olsen, bassist Dmitri Kolesnik, drummer
Jimmy Madison and I set up together at Tom Tedesco Studios. I counted
off my three originals and six standards and the result is this
recording.
The
message of the title is the same whether LIVE INTENTIONALLY! strikes
you as “intentionally recorded live!” or “live your life with
intentionality!” This is our genuine, spontaneous playing, reaching for
all the joy and beauty we could capture in each moment. I’d like to
express my gratitude for the brilliant contributions of Jack Wilkins,
Bucky Pizzarrelli, Tom Tedesco, Luis Guell and my outstanding
collaborators Eric Olsen, Dmitri Kolesnik and Jimmy Madison. I sincerely
hope you enjoy it. Larry Newcomb PhD
Guitarist
Larry Newcomb performs classic and original jazz and blues both as a
soloist and in duo, trio and quartet ensembles. Larry has contributed a
wealth of electric and acoustic guitar stylings in performances and on
recordings with Bucky Pizzarelli, Jack Wilkins, Seleno Clarke, Billy
Kaye, Jon Weiss, Mike Camoia, Larry Newcomb Trio, his duo Jonaitis &
Newcomb, the band Wolfgang’s Revenge and with Babs Winn & the
Kickin’ Boogie Band. Newcomb has studied with guitar masters Bucky
Pizzarelli, Mark Elf, Pat Martino, Howard Roberts and Randy Johnston.
His affable performing style is informed by a PhD in Music History and a
seasoned master’s understanding of the jazz idiom.
The
path to jazz mastery is long, challenging, rewarding and never-ending. I
started out transcribing then quoting great blues guitarists including
B. B. King, Albert King, Freddie King, Eric Clapton and Duane Allman. In
my early 20s, I heard Jim Hall, George Benson, Joe Pass, Barney Kessel,
Herb Ellis and Kenny Burrell. My direction was established. I slowly
developed a repertoire of standard tunes; and, by transposing the work
of the masters, I learned to address each harmonic element of a
tune--especially the creation and resolution of tension from each
dominant chord to the temporary or permanent tonic. Throughout my
musical journey, I’ve strived to play what I hear, and to make each note
ring with colorful, clear and heartfelt beauty.
