 (1 Customer Review)
Recorded during his legendary appearance at the 1972 Montreux Jazz Festival, I EYE AYE is one of Rahsaan Roland Kirk's finest releases. The multi-instrumentalist is backed by a sympathetic quartet of longtime associates: pianist Ron Burton, bassist Henry Pearson, drummer Robert Shy, and invaluable percussionist Joe Habao Texidor, who powers this set's centerpiece, a 10-minute take on Kirk's classic "Volunteered Slavery," like a man possessed. Spurred on by Texidor's fervor, Kirk turns in some of his most impassioned playing, blowing fiery solos on one to three instruments at a time and essaying one of his best "duets for one," interweaving Ellington's standard "Satin Doll" with an improvisation of his own in an intoxicating blend. A lengthy, impassioned reading of the hymn "Balm in Gilead" is the set's emotional high point, and a relaxed, swinging take on Kirk's 1964 composition "Serenade to a Cuckoo" is an absolute joy.

Q (10/96, p.183) - 4 Stars - Excellent - "...show[s] Kirk with even more horns hanging around his neck than usual...often blowing several at the same time, using circular breathing techniques, spluttering or vocalising and playing totally different solos out of each corner of his mouth....He did it like no-one else..."

In this day and age, bands form and disassemble faster than they can even start to gather a collection of original material, mostly because they lack the drive and dedication to succeed. Since the formation of Shinky, they have worked arguably as hard as any unsigned act around to set themselves apart from the average band and build their band from the ground up. Shinky was born in 2000 when three friends shared an unparalleled passion for music and came together with the goal of realizing a dream. This collaboration has resulted in an unmistakably gripping collection of songs, an unforgettable live show, and a purity and integrity to their music that is truly hard to come by. Singer / guitarist Michael Bookmyer and drummer Kyle Ferguson recruited bassist Quinn Liggett in May of 2000 and the three close friends wasted no time in getting their band off the ground. Soon after the band’s inception, they were playing a busy show schedule on a weekly basis and quickly spreading their name to surrounding cities. By the year 2003, they had become a polished live act by playing in several venues scattered all over the Midwest, and constantly building their fan base in the process. The continual additions to the fan base and the gain of respect in the area brought the opportunity of better shows for Shinky. Soon they were playing shows with up-and-coming indie acts such as Coheed and Cambria (Equal Vision Records), Fairweather (Equal Vision Records), Emanuel (Vagrant Records), Two Thirty Eight (Tooth & Nail Records), and Student Rick (Victory Records) to name a few. In addition, three tours spanning all over the Midwest and southern United States proved to be invaluable to the development of the band and creating a buzz. Shinky’s music could be described as in-your-face rock with punk and indie rock influences. The songs have been carefully sculpted with intriguing arrangements ...
