Ed Alstrom cooks up a
tasty tonewheel storm on
his latest release. Alstrom
has performed with everyone from Herbie Hancock
to Blood Sweat & Tears, and has been
the weekend organist at Yankee Stadium since
2004. Trained exclusively as an organist (unlike
many keyboardists), the New Jersey native
navigates the mighty B-3 with an ease that
belies its myriad possibilities. One listen to his
hearty Hammond work on this grooving set,
and you’ll understand what the buzz is all about (Haywire, edalstrom.com)
