Hookers $20.00 Worth Of Pleasure CD

The Individuals playing on this cd have already made the musical history books for personal achievements each in their own rights long before The Hookers began.Peter DePoe is recognized as one of the world's finest drummers. He is noted for the invention of the "KING KONG" beat and his work with compound time patterns in relation to the rock and roll genre. This is the first recording of Pete that he actually got the opportunity to play his own ideas and co-produce. He had spent the last several years teaching and as Pete puts it "reclusion to the drum." He said he wants all of his old friends to know "He has come out of THE DRUM CAVE" with some new thoughts about TIME.Joe Romano played the solos on "ON the LINE" and " Mr. Justice" For those of you that are unfamiliar with the Jazz genre, Joe is also a world class musician that has several feature releases, had spent fourteen years with the Buddy Rich Band and another twelve with the Woody Herman Band and that is only the corner of his resume. Joe blends his famed style with the Hookers as though he had always been there. All of the band members consider it a very great honor to appear on the same recording with Joe. You will know why when you hear his sweat sound on this CD.Wayne Marshall had established himself as a primeror songwriter in Nashville. Many groups from many parts of Earth have recorded tunes composed by Wayne. He had reserved several of his best songs to release on his first feature album. He and Paco had already started the project when he was stricken down with Cancer. Some of those tunes recorded on $20.00 Worth of Pleasure are: Serena. Frisco In The Mornin' Low Rider and Mama Joy. Paco has plans to record other works of Wayne's in the future.Paco has been on the edge of the main stage for many years. His guitar playing reflects his musical development. He studied from the great jazz guitarist of the mid century while playing rock n' roll with his fellow musicians growing up. He found his blues classroom on the streets of the Central District and Pike Place in Seattle while studying classical from the gentlemen on the other side of the tracks. He has played on hundreds of sessions with other groups. But this recording was the first one where he really played what he wanted to, disregarding the commercial boundaries. As the producer he encouraged the other players to be heard on their own terms. The result is $20.00 Worth Of Pleasure. We have smoothly melted R n' R, Blues, Jazz and even a touch of Country into a style, a statement that certainly does not sound forced because it is not forced, it is attracting. It puts the social transformation of the world into perspective. Communication, education and transportation added to the computer age has allowed all people of earth to share their culture with one another, thus music has fused its styles to form its own style. All the artists on this recording shared their person with the other artists. We are proud to share likewise with our audience. Hopefully you will like it for what it is and will not feel a need to put a name on it. If you really must put a name on it than invent one and make it coool!
