Jay Geils-Gerry Beaudoin and the Kings of Strings Featuring Aaron Weinstein
"Brings together three buddies from different areas of music who decided they want to record a jazz album. The result: a pleasant, imminently listenable mixture of swing, mainstream and blues." -JAZZ REVIEW
"A cool, hip CD to put on in nearly any setting. Light and bouncy, this is an uplifting, feel-good album with hours of listening enjoyment contained therein … a great meeting of friends and comrades who include in their number a veteran blues-rock guitarist (Geils) … and a trained jazz guitarist (Beaudoin)." -RAMBLES
Veteran guitarists Jay Geils and Gerry Beaudoin welcome young violin phenom Aaron Weinstein to a swinging recording session - an eclectic, easygoing set of Tin Pan Alley and swing-era classics, with a few originals blues and a timeless bop blues update. Gerry Beaudoin is a Grammy-nominated guitarist who has carved a career out as leader & arranger for the Boston Jazz Ensemble. Winner of the 1992 Naird Award and 1994 Cadence Editors Choice Award, Beaudoin has played with Howard Alden, Frank Vignola, Jack Wilkens, and Andy Summers (of The Police). Jay Geils is the iconic founder of the famous J. Geils Band, one of the most popular touring rock `n' roll bands in America during the seventies. Where their contemporaries were influenced by the heavy boogie of British blues-rock and the ear-splitting sonic adventures of psychedelia, the J. Geils Band was a bar band pure and simple, churning out greasy covers of obscure R&B, doo wop, and soul tunes, cutting them with a healthy dose of Stones swagger. Jay Geils and Gerry Beaudoin met at a guitar show in 1994. Geils became a frequent guest artist with the Gerry Beaudoin Trio in clubs and concerts across the country, and his affinity and skill in performing jazz standards left audiences amazed that a superstar blues rocker had such depth to his playing!
