| Dave Sharp and The Secret Seven CD "7"
Dave is a legend in the world
of Jazz Bass in both electric and double bass formats. Dave Sharp’s Secret Seven
is "World Jazz for the Jazz World", transcending musical, national and ethnic
boundaries by re-interpreting, not fusing, influences from Africa, Asia, the
Latin world, Blue Note Jazz, and that other planet, New Orleans. Dave's new CD,
“7,” (Vortex Jazz Recordings 1969) brings stunning energy to instrumental jazz,
including original tunes like Africano (Afro-Beat), Skeleton Key (Rhumba) and
Crispy Underground (New Orleans Funk). Dave is the former MELVIN'S' bassist and
his band " The Dave Sharp Secret Seven " features tenor saxophonist Chris
Kaercher (THE TEMPTATIONS, O’JAYS, FOUR TOPS, ARETHA FRANKLIN). Rounding out
the Secret Seven sound are drums and percussion by Eric “Chucho ” Wilhelm, and
Dale Grisa on Hammond B3 organ and piano.
