The latest download from Nouveau Stride!


As I said on the home page, lots of TotU press, yay. It really has been great; frequently used words have been "odd," oddness," "quirky," "creepy," "Gothic," and one writer noted that I had ventured more deeply into my own "bizarro world."  Yes!

Here's a shot that the wonderful photographer Bob Barry took during my recent guest appearance at Catalina's in LA, where Ted Howe was doing his remarkable Ellington show.


Since I last wrote there have a lot of press about TotU, quotes on its page; also an interview on All About Jazz that today, 2/22, has 222 Recommends :-). It's been in the #1-Most-Recommended-in-the-Last-30-Days spot since the first day it posted. Other interviews I've done this month include Cat Radio Cafe with Janet Coleman and The New Jazz Thing with Vince Outlaw of KSDS.

Radio-wise, the album is "Chartbound" on Jazz Week and entered the college charts as #40.

Very nice All Music review!

Please oh please, download our first track.
James P. Johnson's "Caprice Rag,"
entitled (with my lyrics) "Pour on the Heat."
99 cents for 3 minutes of wild and crazy stride.
