    37

    The biggest news of 2007 comes from distinguished New Zealand drummer Frank Gibson who was instrumental in this reissue of visiting American Jazz artists to New Zealand during the early ’80’s that includes two new unpublished songs from Emily, her last ever studio recordings on 4/24/90.
    Visit Frank’s site for details about the project and get a free listen to Funkallero @ frankgibson.com
    ~ Click on the graphic to purchase ParalleL 37 exclusively from Smoke CD’s. This project probably won’t get the exposure it deserves in the U.S. but it’s full of wonderful performances from highly celebrated names in Jazz like Scofield and Milt Jackson.


    It’s a rare blessing to have new Emily songs to cherish.
