Joey "G-Clef" Cavaseno has had a storied career in jazz music, as well as a parallel career in the hip-hop and alternative music universe, under the moniker G-Clef da Mad Komposa. In 1993, on this release, we are able to hear a band that attempted to unify concepts to form one combo that would rock any venue: something both soulful and swinging, that could be accessible to any audience. That project would be called The Jazz Gangstas. For whatever reason, the germ of a classic musical idea was born, but never quite came into fruition. Cavaseno decided to hold a rehearsal/demo session at Foreclosure Studio, which was headquarters to his Hip-Hop "lab" (studio). He had this idea that he would procure the most soulful and swinging cats he knew: Bobby on organ, Chris Flory on guitar (who he knew from Scott Hamilton's group), Brian Sledge (who had long been associated with him, after being introduced by vibraphonist/composer Tom Haas), and last but not least the great Kenny Bolds, on drums.

  1. C.F. Blues (take 3) (Chris Flory)
