- This coming August- September, watch out for 'Best of RLWK - B-3 Organic
Grooves' a 73 minute & 59 second 12 song Lev-ology of the best cuts
from the last three RLWK Levtron.com Cds. Some of the tunes have been
re-mixed into more hard hitting compacted shorter versions of the most
radio requested tunes, all in a more rack-able, filing friendly package.
We've gotten some 'comments' regarding the vintage mini-LP style paper
sleeves we've been using, so we're going with the plastic jewel cases
from now on. itsaulgood.
- Levy, Melvin & Karl have completed 4 NEW tracks for the next RLWK
release due out for Fall of 2004 which'll be called 'VooDoo Boogaloo'
on Levtron.com [#206]. Former Muddy Water's and currently Eric Clapton's
harp master Jerry Portnoy plays a killer harmonica solo on Lev's tribute
tune to Lev's mentor Willie Mitchell, 'Memphis Memories'. 'Sax' Gordon
also contributes some honkin' baritone sax along with Karl Denson on
tenor, as a horn section. Funky, funky, funky. We just finished cutting
another 4 tracks of new 'HOT' originals the last week of June at Witch
Doctor Recording Studio in Salem Mass. btw: Shawn's moving the studio
to Brooklyn NY. He and Lev should be back twistin' and turnin' the knobs,
punchin' the keys, mixin' & masterin', once again this October 2004.
We've already moved the organ down there!
