Live Bonus Tracks: Tony Foster Trio !

8/25/2010

Here are a couple raw unedited tracks recorded at a live concert!
The first tune comes from the classic Charlie And The Chocolate Factory film featuring Gene Wilder, and is entitled "Pure Imagination." Second is Cole Porter's "In The Still of The Night". Recorded from in the audience, so don't mind the "raw" recording sound quality! :)

A review of "In Between Moods" has been posted over at an excellent blog called "This Is Book's Music" The blog provides "Music reviews, news, opinions + more"!

Some excerpts:
"a trio album (the other musicians on here being Joe Poole on drums and Russell Botten on bass) that is truly a brilliant statement and piece of work."

"The musicianship is powerful, the recording sounds incredible"
"The 9-song strong In Between Moods (self-released) is an album of performances Foster, Poole, and Botten did for radio broadcasts, and the songs they play are just top notch."

You can read the entire review over at the blog!
