David Basse Discography of CDs

David Basse CD discography Singer David Basse has a gruff voice a little reminiscent of Dr. John. He sings in a similar jazz-influenced style, performing five of Mike Melvoin's originals, a couple standards ("I'm Just a Lucky So and So" and "Sugar"), and a few offbeat choices including Tom Waits' "Invitation to the Blues," Billy Joel's "New York State of Mind," and Eddie Jefferson's "Soft and Furry." Basse is joined by a rhythm section led by pianist Mike Melvoin with three guest appearances apiece by vibraphonist Larry Bunker and tenor-saxophonist Herman Riley. However, the main focus is on Basse's voice and his interpretations of the lyrics. Fans of Dr. John and Waits in particular should be interested in this well-done project. ~ Scott Yanow Recorded at Westlake Audio, Hollywood, California. Includes liner notes by John Hughes.
