New Album Released from Philadelphia Jazz Guitarist

[DannyLuciano]

This is a collaborated effort from my friends Saxophonist Joe Fortunato & Guitarist Lou Gagliardi.Joe Fortunato basically showcased organist Joey DeFrancesco at an early age while PaPa John Defrancesco was working with Frotunato's ACT-III trio. This recording consists of five popular standard songs featuring the unreleased version of “Moonlight in Vermont” – “Body & Soul” plus others including the romantic lush sounds of a Saxophone & Guitar duo to be enjoyed.

All tracks have been made available for your listening pleasure.

wait - if this is a "new album released" and it has Moonlight in Vermont on it, then how can it be the unreleased version? I'm confused.

Street team don't care. Street team don't give a fuck.

Y'all back the fuck off - this was released for my listening pleasure. The guy said so.

[AllenLowe]

you got it.

[JSngry]

Now I've got to convince them to release that unreleased version and unrelease the released one.

I would do that for you guys, I would.

[AllenLowe]

first or second takes?

[JSngry]

After sleeping on it, I think the whole thing should be recalled, rerecorded, and reunreleased.

With today's technology, there's no excuse for not getting it right the second time.

Had no idea Lucky Luciano was a jazz guitarist

Yup. Never heard anyone criticize him either

Any of you wise guys bother to listen to the samples Danny linked? Mind you, it's nothing earth-shattering or innovative, but the music is competently played and quite enjoyable. Very few guitar/sax duo recordings out there. It deserves a listen, imo. Sorry to learn Mr. Fortunato passed away last October.

I don't mind if people come here to tout their releases. That should be a part of a vibrant jazz community, imo. I'd appreciate a little less snarkiness. Thanks.
