Collier, one of the best jazz percussionists on the planet, presents an accessible, surreal program of familiar tunes from the defined 'baby boomer' generation. Nearly 70 years of experience and musical influence are brought to fruition on this incredible series of Baby Boomer "VIBES"... This is VOLUME 2.
Volume 2 is rich with familiar favorites...from Dylan to Jagger/Richards...from McCartney/Lennon to Hank Williams, Jimmy Webb, Ray Davies, the compositions are impressions that will never be forgotten and Collier delivers his vibe-fantastic version of all!!!!.....This is incredible material extremely well done by one of the best around!
Unlike all previous album projects Collier has recorded over the past forty years, Boomer Vibes, Volume Two (as well as vol. 1 and the upcoming vol. 3) represent his first recordings of songs he didn't compose. Instead, he recorded three albums worth of songs from the 1960s and '70s that were especially important in his life for one reason or another. This album is also his second "do it yourself" album in over ten years. He plays every instrument on these tracks (with two exceptions as noted).
