Green Street

John Stein

 A classic revisited! Whaling City Sound is excited to re-release John Stein’s fantastic 1999 album Green Street, featuring the great David “Fathead” Newman on saxophone and flute, Ken Clark on the Hammond B3 organ, and Dave Hurst on drums. Stein’s smooth as silk work weaves its way through twelve tracks, with Newman weighing in on five tracks, including Booga Lou, Hotcakes and the title track. The recording has been cleaned up, the song order adjusted and the artwork re-designed, with legendary producer Michael Cuscuna saying “One key to its success is that it is an homage, not an overly wrought re-enactment. This is music happening now with a nod to a wonderful era.” ‘Nuff said!
