"Sort of a deconstructed Miles Davis Birth Of The Cool amped up to the new millennium. Adamo is much in the same way as Miles, a visionary."…

"Chock full of funky grooves, TONY ADAMO's new release MILES OF BLU features Tony taking his trademark style, "HipSpokenWord", to a new level of hipness." Steve Finch STROKELAND RECORDS

In the summer of 2011 legendary drummer, Mike Clark (Herbie Hancock and the Headhunters) recorded with Tony Adamo on a new cover of Tower of Power's "Soul Vaccination." It was at this session a music alliance was formed between the two and Clark became the music producer for Adamo's new CD, MILES OF BLU. Clark had played on Adamo's previous CDs. To complete the mix, Clark brought on board Tim Ouimette, the very talented and highly respected musician, trumpet player, big band leader and music…

"It quickly becomes apparent that in the gray area between jazz, r&b and soul, Tony Adamo is one of the top voices. What Is Hip? is easily recommended."

The Top 50 Releases of 2012/JazzTimes/February issue 2013



If you combined all Top 50 Jazz releases in terms of hard copy sales. Would it amount to 250,000 units sold, 300,000 sold? And what's wrong with Jazz radio or what's left of it?

suggestion made by the legendary horn player and Tower of Power co-founder, STEPHEN 'DOC' KUPKA. During a recording session with Adamo. Doc suggested several TOP songs that Adamo might want to cover.



Adamo chose “What is…

Certain albums are snapshots of their eras. They encapsulate the good with the bad and offer lucid apertures into the way things were. Eddie Gale cut two sessions for Blue Note at the close of the ’60s that are beautifully indicative of time and place. Jazz was a cauldron of fomenting styles – fusion, funk, free, R&B, Rock and African, all of these genres were feeding into the music with replenishing regularity, birthing hybrid forms at a pace that was sometimes dizzying…

Singer Tony Adamo's Funky Hip Eleanor Rigby

This very fresh take on the Beatles' symphonically infused downer reemerges here in Adamo's arrangement as decidedly less depressive but certainly no less enticing. The melancholy of the original comes through less so in Adamo's phrasings but is threaded throughout by the plaintiveness of the organ.

Random Act Records," TONY ADAMO has created a

unique genre: "HipSpoken-Word." Built on the wisdom of musical wizards like Gil-Scott Heron,

Mark Murphy, Jack Kerouac and hip/hop master rappers, Tony speaks the Truth through his poetic

musings."
