Extremely Exceptional Audiophile Sound: Both the Swiss Jazz musicians Tommy Schneider and Brian Auger continue the tradition of the great Jimmy Smith on the Hammond Organ.
NEW LP Record, and must-have!
Tommy released together with superb soloists three albums with groovy and warm sounds from blues, soul and swing, funk and Latino with rock elements from their guitar player.
Tommy expressed the idea to remaster selected recordings from the three albums "Move", "Plan B3" and "Hidden Port", which were made with his friends, to get the last bit of sound out of the recordings. This LP Record featuring Adrian Stern / Hans Peter Bartsch / Philippe Chrétien / Massimo Buonanno.
Tommy Schneider's colleagues in the band are all brilliant as well, and the interplay is wonderful to listen to. The music includes the genres swing, acid jazz, blues, funk, soul, and Latin, peppered with rock elements. In addition to contemplative moments, there are also times when things get going.

Mostly even within the pieces, which are thus arranged very entertaining. Mostly even within the pieces, which are thus arranged very entertaining.
Six of the eight selected songs for "The Best of" were composed by Tommy Schneider himself. In the selection of songs, he can also be heard on the flute. His colleagues in the band are all brilliant as well, and the interplay is wonderful to listen to.
The tracks were wonderfully interpreted with electric guitar, saxophone solos, and a Hammond organ that is always played appropriately. The tough bass line played by Tommy Schneider on the Hammond organ is striking. You can hear how well the four musicians harmonize and interact. The band leads very relaxed through the program. From the original master tape comes a round piece of album art to celebrate, really well done!
The sound aesthete runs, besides Tommy's activity as a musician, the store "Hammond Times" in Zurich. Tommy Schneider's other remarkable talent is shown by the fact that he can maintain and restore historical Hammond organs, as well as the Leslie cabinets that go with them, impeccably. In addition, he gives music lessons on the Hammond organ.
The following musicians can be heard:
Adrian Stern, born in Zurich in 1975, is an excellent guitarist, multi-instrumentalist, singer and songwriter. His appearances on Swiss television under his own name or as a band member with well-known Swiss musicians testify to his great musical skills. He has released several albums of his own. On this compilation, his versatility can be heard.
Philippe Chrétien, born in Basel in 1958, was first taught piano and trumpet and founded the tenor saxophone in 1979. He developed his personal style. Listen to his unmistakable tone in harmony with his musical sensitivity. Motto: "He's got a killer sound!"
Hans Peter Bartsch, born in 1966, hails from the German Frankfurt am Main region. He is known as a session drummer and is also an excellent pianist. He plays in various music projects. His variability makes him a perfect fit for Tommy Schneider's music projects.
Massimo Buonanno, born in 1985 in Egnach (Switzerland), is a passionate live musician who, for example, played about 280 concerts in 2015 (with Seven, Gregor Meyle or Claude Diallo Situation, among others). At the turn of the year 2015 he played with Gregor Meyle at the Brandenburg Gate in Berlin in front of a million people - and now from the tape for you in your living room.
Tommy Schneider, born in Zurich in 1962, works as a composer, flutist, Hammond organist and producer. He plays with various bands and can look back on a total of five released albums (four studio and one live recording). Listen to his masterfully played Hammond organ with all its tonal nuances.
Stunning sound, a "must have" vinyl with a very high enjoyment factor, including addiction potential. Enjoy the excellent sound every time you play it.
