At Home Next Door

Al Basile's ninth solo release At Home Next Door is a double CD set: the first is remastered blues songs from his 14 year Sweetspot catalogue that show Al's mastery of the blues form as a writer, and features star guests like harpists Jerry Portnoy and Sugar Ray Norcia, keyboard aces like Bruce Katz, and always featuring Duke Robillard's great guitar playing and production; the second is all new 60s Memphis style songs with the Duke Robillard Band backing Al up, with the Roomful of Blues Alumni horns and special guest jazz great Scott Hamilton. Al's Blues Music award-nominated cornet playing shines throughout, rich-toned and economical.
