urb Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 Eh up, just wanted to tip you guys to the new Kyle Eastwood album - called The View From Here - I've followed Kyle's stuff over recent years, but always felt it's been a bit over-produced but this one is really good - it's a great five-piece band all playing live in the studio, lots of great grooves, melodies and some fruity solos from all concerned - it's kind of swinging jazz-into-funk with other influences - very film-score-esque in places. Kyle's playing has really come on - his solos are superb plus he's really solid when backing - all in all I'm impressed - there's a sound clip here (it's the opening track) and it's out in March: https://soundcloud.com/airartistagency/from-rio-to-havana-kyle Just thought some of y'all might dig it Cheers M Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lowdown Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 I caught this track a couple of days ago, and his like of the 70's [almost cop theme like] music is pretty strong here. Good stuff. Garry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
51m0n Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 Cheers URB, saw him a couple of years ago with Plux at the Brighton Corn Exchange, damn good gig it was too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fretmeister Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 His 'Metropolitain' album is one of my fave CDs. Superb playing with actual tunes!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mcgiver69 Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 (edited) Is it me but the bass intro sounds like a tune from Incognito, "Still a friend of mine" if I'm not wrong. Edited February 13, 2013 by Mcgiver69 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lenny B Posted February 15, 2013 Share Posted February 15, 2013 I play occasionally with his drummer, Martyn Kaine - great player, learned (and improved) so much by playing with him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big_Stu Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 (edited) Even as I type he's being i'viewed on R2 by Simon Mayo, just gave a demo of his one-off Gibson custom bass. Well worth catching on iPlayer if you miss it. Edited February 18, 2013 by Big_Stu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
