| | Captain Coconut Shoop! CD Captain Coconut Discography of CDs
Captain Coconut's debut CD, entitled "Shoop!", features 8 original tracks, recorded, produced, mixed and edited entirely by the band in our home studio in NYC.It features: Dan Knobler (guitar), Matt Porter (keys), Zack Rosen (electric fretless bass), Greg Evans (drums), Matt Chiasson (tenor/soprano sax), Jon Saraga (trumpet) and Danny Rivera (baritone sax & horn arrangements)---------------------------"Shoop!" Reviewed in OffBeat Magazine - New Orleans' Premier Music Publicationby John Swenson"Captain Coconut has built a strong following out of its New York City base at the Knitting Factory, but the band passed its funk final exam in showcase gigs at New Orleans clubs during Jazz Fest the past two years. Shoop! lives up to the promise of the live shows with a terse, snappy neo-funk sound that particularly showcases the instrumental prowess of the horn section (check out Danny Riviera’s monster break during the brass meltdown on “Jubilant Crackhead Strut”).The two most impressive things about the album are the exceptionally good songwriting, especially guitarist Dan Knobler’s numbers, and the airtight, stop-and-go-on-a-dime arrangements. For a young band, these kids really play together as a unit. My only criticism of the album is that Greg Evans’ drumming doesn’t always make its way through the mix, reminding me that one of the biggest mistakes young bands make is not according the studio as much importance as the effects box."http://offbeat.com/artman/publish/article_2714.shtml---------------------------Bio:Captain Coconut is funk music at its finest. They play it and they live it. The seven-piece band has absorbed all the old R&B and soul masters and gobbled up the classic jazz and funky soul-jazz records made decades before they were born, from Jimmy Smith to James Brown, from Coltrane to Maceo. In other words, they know their funk.Hailing from New York City, Captain Coconut has played Sullivan Hall (previously known as The Lion's Den), the late CBGB & Tribeca Rock Club, the Cutting Room, Canal Room, the cozy P&W’s Sandwich Shop, and are regulars at the Knitting Factory having played on all three stages. They've opened for Eric Krasno and Adam Deitch on the Lower East Side at Scenic and have played shows in New Orleans during JazzFest opening for Bill Summers in 2006 and sharing the bill with Marc Stone in 2007.Please Check Our EPK for a Full Bio:www.sonicbids.com/CaptainCoconut.

| | Leona Lewis Echo CD (2009)
Shoop!
$11.18  
The goal of Leona Lewis' 2007 debut, Spirit, was to prove that an X Factor winner could be a phenomenon not just in the U.K., but in the rest of the world. The goal of her second album, 2009's Echo, is to prove that success was no fluke, to build upon "Bleeding Love" and turn Lewis into an actual diva. Certainly, Echo in any of its incarnations -- its song listings are tailored for individual markets, with the U.K. getting a cover of Oasis' "Stop Crying Your Heart Out," while the U.S. gets a second song co-written by Justin Timberlake -- uses the chilly, synthesized "Bleeding Love" as its foundation, creating a sheet of sound equal parts Euro-pop and modern American R&B. As opposed to the often-stuffy Spirit, this is proudly modern, and if the sounds emanating from the two sides of the Atlantic might seem to be aesthetically opposed, they're both producer-driven music constructed layer by layer from rhythm ...

The title may not be 100-percent accurate, since the songs here are culled from Franklin's soul years, roughly between 1967 and 1974, and she's had lots more hits since then. That nit picked, however, this is a genuine embarrassment of riches, with Aretha's ...

The year was nineteen hundred and seventy nine. There was a mighty and terrific storm brewing in the Pacific. It swept across the land, eastward, becoming greater and more impudent to settle it's fury in Carolina. As the initial bolt of lightning struck down, six after the evening hour of ten, on the sixth day of October, in this foul year of our lord; two boys were given unto a virgin mother in the name of The Guitar, The Drums, and The Whole Beat Notes. Later, that very evening, they were visited by three wise ...

Shoop!
$9.35
An Interview with Chris Williams co founder of the company JD Experience and CO-Producer of it's new CD “Sophistication”!Tell us about the CD.It’s entitled “Sophistication”. It’s an impressive blend of JD’s lyrics with me, Clayton Morrow and Johnny Gordon’s musical arrangements. As you listen to each track you will be able to hear my blend of late 70’s, 80’s and 90’s R&B, Clayton’s Neo-Soul. Who came up with the name and Why “Sophistication”?James named the CD. It was the vibe he got while the music was coming together. When I think of sophistication I think of something classic, mature, tasteful and that aptly describes JD and The JD Experience. JD’s vocal and lyrical style is pure classic soul. The music is a mature blend of funk, smooth jazz and soul rarely heard much these days. Together they create a tasteful blend that appeals to people of all backgrounds, young and old. Who worked on “Sophistication” with you?All the lyrics were written and arranged by JD (James Daniel). ...
