V’ROOM! V’ROOM!! Michael Kocour: Spiffy

Want to put some fun back into the funky? Check out this set by B3er Michael Kocour, who teams up with Bruce Forman/g, Eric Schneider/as-ts and Dom Moio/dr for nine toe tapping tunes.

You’ve got some rapid fire bopping with Schneider’s tenor on “Dropped Third Strike” and Forman’s guitar on “Monk’s Hayride,” while the Hammond cozies up to Forman’s strings on a sleek read of “Girl Talk.”  Forman is his usual dashing and debonair self as he teams with Schneider’s alto on a playful “Huffininpuffin” and blends in with the B3 on a delicate “Tenderley.” But, Hammonds wouldn’t exist if it weren’t for the blues, and Kocour delivers a cooker on a boogying “Da Good Stuff.” This will cure whatever ails ya.
