THIS PROJECT IS ON THE VERGE OF GOING INTO THE BLACK. CHECK OUT THE NEW LOW PRICE! THANKS FOR SUPPORTING MY WORK.Cafe Cirque the new CD by Shoehorn - February 29, 2008On January 22-23rd, I took my quartet into the Big Red recording studio to record 12 songs. We recorded to analog tape and achieved a live-in -the-studio document of the group's sound. Cafe Cirque features Dan Gaynor on piano. Skip Elliott Bowman on bass and Ward Griffiths on drums. All have been performing with me for a number of years and I have wanted to record us properly for awhile, having done a number of quickie mini-disc recordings of our gigs. Come to our CD launch party at Jimmy Mak's and check us out. Below are some notes about the new disc.Shoehorn’s - Cafe Cirque 1/22/08 Big Red Studio1. OkonomideThis tune is by Shiina Ringo, a sensational artist from Japan. She has done various versions of it on CD and video, including one with a jazz piano trio and a big string section. The title , roughly translated means “As you like”2. Carbon FootprintThis tune is a feature for burning footwork based on “rhythm changes” a common 32-bar structure for jazz performers and composers.3. Wet Foot Bluesis a fun blues number born at the Portland Saturday Market where I occasionally perform. Need I say? It was raining that day.4. When it’s Sleepy Time Down SouthThis was Louis Armstrong’s theme song later in his career, and Pops has always been one of my all-time idols since I saw him on TV as a kid. We take it even further south with a bossa feel.5. La Lluvia (the Rain)I wrote this several winters ago on a kid’s Casio sitting at my performing partner Rhys Thomas's kitchen table. It was raining that day too.6. Waking Up in MexicoI actually wrote this one in Japan one morning as I woke up at a friend’s house after a night of music and visiting. Since I was sleeping in his studio with my head next to the piano I immediately worked it out and wrote it down. The song is featured in my comedy video “Jump Start” on youtube.7. Isezaki-cho Blues is a noir-ish Japanese Rumba. Isezaki-cho is a shopping street and entertainment district in Yokohama, Japan, where I spent time busking on nights I was not gigging. It had been the center of a bustling post-war jazz scene in the 1950’s. The famed singer Misora Hibari came from the neighborhood. Guys used to stop and listen, pretending they were Humphrey Bogart while they enjoyed a cigarette. last time I was there it had become a mecca for youngish singer/guitarists.8. The Strawberry WaltzI felt the record needed a waltz and I loved this one by my daughter Isabel Sakura who wrote this at age 11.9. Fuego Azul (Silk Road)This piece led off my last CD, Trio Calzador, from 2003. I wanted to show a different side of it with the drums and piano, using the same setting on the Tappercussion Mark VII e-tap instrument10.Raptapsody in BlueI originally performed this one at the 1993 JazzTap/HipHop festival in Boston. I recorded it in 1994 as a solo piece on my 1st CD, World Beat Ragtime, but I wanted to give it the full band treatment.11. Remember My Forgotten ManI discovered this great Harry Warren song when I got the DVD of Gold Diggers of 1933, a depression-era behind-the-scenes musical with Ruby Keeler, Ginger Rogers, Joan Blondell, and Dick Powell with elaborate choreography by Busby Berkely. In an early scene the song is done as a demo for the producer character and then closes the show as a huge production number. I was struck by the relevance of the lyrics to the current situation of war veterans ...
