Tony Adamo Combustible Soul Music


by Fred E. Harris

Soulman singer, Tony Adamo and his long time Guitarist/ Producer Jerry Stucker were at it again at Different Fur Recording Studio, San Francisco, CA. They created some very hip combustible soul music for Adamo's upcoming new CD release in '09. Melecio Magdaluyo who plays with Pete Escovedo, The Whispers, John Santo and Bobby Matos wrote original horn arrangements and played the flute and sax on two of Adamo's new tunes. Melecio brought in Henry Hung to fill out the bill playing on trumpet and trombone. Adamo continues to expand his musical voice and along with his producer are continuing to bring in superb session players who are outstanding artists in their own right. Engineer for this recording session was Rick Perez.

Mic Gillette who wrote the original horn arrangement for "No Strings" is one of those outstanding musicians. "No Strings" is a free wheeling romp of a funk horn section lead by Gillette and anchored by Stephen 'Doc' Kupka, both of Tower of Power fame. Adamo's in your face kool vocals propelled "No Strings" to be played on over 500 Radio Stations most recently KISS FM 102.7, Los Angles and WNUA 95.5, Chicago. Both have added Adamo's "No Strings" to their independent artist's playlist.
