Pete Thomas - Midnight in the Naked City

Pete has recorded with Jimmy Witherspoon, Elton John, REM, Richard Thompson and Joe Jackson, performed live with Fats Domino, Jon Hendricks, Sting, Jools Holland, Slim Gaillard and many others. This latest release evokes the sleazy world of 1940s basement bars and demonstrates how the sax remains a truly emotional instrument. Discarding the flurry of notes approach of others, Pete makes each note count and every blast tells a story. The title track sets the tone with it's steamy lines, while the ballad 'Love Them' is sumptuously refined. Accompanied by a playalong book with backing tracks and solo transcriptions (see Pete's website) this is a superb package for any aspiring player as well as fans of this timeless style.
