  • New York, NY (1888PressRelease) March 24, 2012 - Tony Adamo's unreleased CD,"9 MILES OF BLU," produced by legendary drummer, Mike Clark is in the can for 2012. On March 24, Tony Adamo, Mike Clark, Delbert Bump and Steve Homan will start recording new music for Adamo's live shows and for a future CD release scheduled for 2013.

    Tony Adamo's 9 Miles of Blu is a jazzy spoken-word homage to jazz's inspirational greats. Adamo reaches into the pre-rap turf of Gil Scott-Heron here with this seductive too-short flash memoir about how he discovered jazz and its legendary envelope-pushers. Dizzy Gillespie, Charles Mingus, Thelonius Monk, John Coltrane, Miles Davis. There's energy and honor and wonder in Adamo's words, especially in the fluid alliterative syncopated way the words reflect the inspiration that jazz gave him as an artist, as a human being. Complementing his nimble vocals are former Herbie Hancock drummer Mike Clark and guitarist Steve Holman, both of whose equally homage-ist beats and licks, respectively, are clean but entirely their own.
