Rhoda Scott - from C to Shining C
This is Hammond organ jazz that swings in the tradition; featuring battling tenor saxophones, soulful ballads and bluesy guitar.
Since 1968, Rhoda has lived in Paris, France where she has performed and recorded for the European jazz lovers unselfishly. Her reputation as one of the world's leading jazz organists, always heralded in Europe, may now be brought to the attention of those American Jazz fans awakening to the Hammond groove. With her roots in Newark, she knows the rich and colorful history of the Jazz organ and it's versatility in modern music. "I think the organ can do just about anything one wants to do with it. It can be a single instrument or a whole big band. It can be a hard driving instrument or it can be a smooth, mellow, soft instrument. It can set just about any mood and can play just about any rhythm or style. The organ is one of the most amazing instruments that exists."

Crash w/Dr. Lonnie Smith
The Dr. Is In
Crash is on a collision course with success! This groove-drenched sextet seeks inspiration from such artists as James Brown and Herbie Hancock, and has been compared to the likes of Maceo Parker and Medeski, Martin and Wood.
"A churning beat, driving organ and bass, and tight horn parts, gets Vancouver sextet Crash's new CD off of the block's quickly."
--Marke Andrews - Vancouver Sun,
"...funk dressed up with elements of swing and other good things to get the brain cells jumping."
--Montreal Jazz Festival
Crash is on a collision course with success! This groove-drenched sextet seeks inspiration from such artists as James Brown and Herbie Hancock, and has been compared to the likes of Maceo Parker and Medeski, Martin and Wood.
The band recently collaborated with legendary Hammond B3 Organist, Dr. Lonnie Smith. The group played 4 sold out shows at The Cellar Restaurant / Jazz Club and to over 1500 people at The Central City Jazz Festival. Crash / Dr. Lonnie Smith are doing a West Coast Jazz Festival Tour in the summer of 2004. Crash is available as a sextet, and is also taking offers for the quintet featuring Dr. Lonnie Smith.

Skip Heller with DOSE
The Battle In Seattle
IT"S BACK!!
Skip's own new label, Skyeways, has restored this to print (after much lobbying from listeners across our great nation).
This was SH's first live trio recording, cut with Skerik's Syncopated Taint rhythm section at a really tiny and extremely cool Seattle bar.
If you could only buy one recording of small group barroom jazz, this would be it. All the sweat, excitement, and aggression -- right here. No messing around. Just the throw-down.
